Lyrics
I'm going to tell you a story about Mary Lou
I mean, the kind of a woman make a fool of you
She make a young man groan and an old man pain
Way she took my money was a crying shame

(Mary Lou, Mary Lou) She took my diamond ring
(Mary Lou, Mary Lou) She took my watch and chain
(Mary Lou) She took the keys to my Cadillac car
Jumped in my Kitty and she drove afar

Left me stranded in Kalamazoo
Making her a fortune off a fool like you
She got her a rich man, had a dozen kids
Drove that cat until he flipped his lid

(Mary Lou, Mary Lou) She took my diamond ring
(Mary Lou, Mary Lou) She took my watch and chain
(Mary Lou) She took the keys to my Cadillac car
Jumped in my Kitty and she drove afar

Well, she come back into town about a week ago
Told me she was sorry that she hurt me so
I had a '55 Ford and a two-dollar bill
When she took a-that, a-man it gave me a chill

(Mary Lou, Mary Lou) She took my diamond ring
(Mary Lou, Mary Lou) She took my watch and chain
(Mary Lou) She took the keys to my Cadillac car
Jumped in my Kitty and she drove afar
Well, she jumped in my Kitty and she drove afar
