capo at 2nd fret makes things easier 
it's pretty "strait"forward (sorry) the 
way I play it.... 
 

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