Adalida

Written：Mike Geiger/Michael Huffman/Woody Mullis

Chorus：

Adalida, pretty little Cajun queen

Sweet Dixie flower, the bell of the bayou

You're every young man's dream

Adalida, I'd walk through a hurricane

To stand beside ya sweet Adalida

I'd swim the Pontchartrain.

Oh no, here ya comin' down the road

With your cotton dress a swishin'

You're getting some attention

From all the boys in Thibodaux

Oh my, you're really filling up their eyes

Smiling and a winking

I know what they're thinking

But I'm the only one who loves you so.

Chorus:

Adalida, pretty little Cajun queen

Sweet Dixie flower, the bell of the bayou

You're every young man's dream

Adalida, I'd walk through a hurricane

To stand beside ya sweet Adalida

I'd swim the Pontchartrain.

--- Instrumental ---

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 red neck green

The way that you're a lookin'

You got me a cookin'

And I ain't talking bout Etoufee’.

Chorus:

Adalida, pretty little Cajun queen

Sweet Dixie flower, the bell of the bayou

You're every young man's dream

Adalida, I'd walk through a hurricane

To stand beside ya sweet Adalida

I'd swim the Pontchartrain.

Chorus:

Adalida, pretty little Cajun queen

Sweet Dixie flower, the bell of the bayou

You're every young man's dream

Adalida, I'd walk through a hurricane

To stand beside ya sweet Adalida

I'd swim the Pontchartrain.

To stand beside ya sweet Adalida.

To stand beside ya sweet Adalida.

Just to stand beside of my sweet Adalida

I'd swim the Pontchartrain...
