Thread Name: Lyr Req: Adalida (from George Strait)
Subject: Lyr Add: ADALIDA (Geiger, Huffman, Mullis)
Lyrics a little messed up in the thread and in the DT.

ADALIDA
(Mike Geiger, Michael Huffman, Woody Mullis)

CHORUS: Adalida, pretty little Cajun queen,
Sweet Dixie flower, the belle of the bayou,
You're every young man's dream
Adalida, I'd walk through a hurricane
To stand beside you, sweet Adalida,
I'd swim the Pontchartrain.

1. Oh, no, here you're comin' down the road
With your cotton dress a-swishin',
You're gettin' some attention
From all the boys in Thibodaux,
Oh, my, you really fillin' up their eyes,
Smilin' and a-winkin', I know what they're thinkin',
But I'm the only one who loves you so! CHORUS

2. Oh, no, the hottest little dish I know
I know you can tell it, you're makin' me so jealous,
From my head down to my toes
Oh me, you could make a redneck green,
The way that you're a-lookin', you got me a-cookin',
And I ain't talkin' 'bout étouffée! CHORUS TWICE
