[Verse 6]
I'm going [Bm]to tell you a story about mary lou
I mean the kind of girl who make
a fool of you
She'd make a young man groan
and a poor man pain
The way she took my money
was a cryin' shame
Mary lou -- she took my watch and chain
Mary lou -- she took my diamond ring
Mary lou -- she took my cadillac car
Jumped in my kitty and drove afar

[Verse 7]
Well, she [Bm]picked up from georgia,
moved to kalamazoo
Made her a fortune outta fools like you
Meet her a rich man who was married
and had two kids
She stoked that cat till he flipped [F#]his lid
[Bm]Mary lou -- she took my watch and chain
Mary lou -- she took my diamond ring
Mary lou -- she took my cadillac car
Jumped in my [G]kitty and [Bm]drove afar

[Verse 8]
Well, she [Bm]came back to town
about a week ago
Told me she was sorry she had hurt me so
I had a '55 ford and a two dollar bill
They way she took that man
she gave me a chill
Mary lou -- she took my watch and chain
Mary lou -- she took my diamond ring
Mary lou -- she took my cadillac car
Jumped in my kitty and drove [D]afar

[Verse 9]
[D]
Oh child you big fool (big fool, big fool)
Ahh, mary [G]lou (mary lou, mary lou)
Oh child you big [D]fool (big fool, big fool)
You did [Am]everything for [G]him that you
could do [D](mary lou, mary lou)

[Verse 10]
You [D]did everything for
him that you could do
You did [Am]everything [G]for him
that you could do
[D]You did everything for him
that you could do
You did [A]everything [Am]for him[G]

[Outro 1]
that you could do
[G][D][G][D]
