ADALIDA

Sung by: George Strait

"Adalida, purty little cajun queen, sweet dixie flower,
the belle of the bayou you're every young mans dream,
Adalida, I'd walk through a hurricane to stand beside you
sweet Adalida, I'd swim the Ponchartrain."

Oh no, here you're commin down the road, with your cotton
dress a swishin you're gettin some attention from all the
boys from Tebeno, Oh my, you're really filling up their
eyes a smilin and a winkin I known what they're thinkin,
but I'm the only one who loves you so. "Chorus"

Oh no, hottest little dish you 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 red neck green, the way that
you're a lookin you got me a cookin and I ain't talking
bout eutoffe. "Chorus"

"Chorus again"

The last lines to the second chorus goes:

I'd walk through a hurricane to stand beside you sweet
Adalida, I'd swim the Ponchartrain, to stand beside you
sweet Adalida, to stand beside you sweet Adalida just to
stand beside of my sweet Adalida I'd swim the
Ponchartrain.

Ah yea.
