CHORUS:
[A]Adalida, pretty little cajun [E]queen
[E]sweet dixie flower, the belle of the bayou
you're every young man's [A]dream
[A]Adalida, I'd walk thru a hurri[D]cane
[E]to stand beside you sweet Adalida
I'd swin the Pontchar[A]train
[A]Oh no, here you comin down the [E]road
With your cotton dress a swishin',
you gettin some attention
from all the boys in Thibo[A]daux
[A]Oh my you really fillin up their [D]eyes
[E]smilin' and a winkin', I know what they're thinkin'
but I'm the only one who loves you [A]so!
REPEAT CHORUS
[A]Oh no, the hottest little dish I [D]know
[E]I know you can tell it, your makin me so jealous,
From my head down to my [A]toes
[A]Oh me, you could make a redneck [D]green,
[E]the way that your a lookin', you got me cookin'
and I ain't talkin 'bout [A]Etoufee'
