Linda Lou Songtext

von The Tractors

Louisiana got that southern style
They got they girls with they teenage smile
Cajun girls and gumbo--cryin' out to be your friend
Backroad drivin' on a Saturday night
Knockin' at the door with the friendly light

She say hey, hey, baby--baby, baby come on in
She say she call herself Linda Lou
No need to ask her what it is she do
She had a yodel in her walk--a swing like a new back door
As sure as B.B. done got the blues
I got it bad from my head down to my baton rouge
Yodel lodel love--hit me like a 2 by 4

[Chorus]
Love--got a mind of its own
Love--won't leave you alone
Love--takes you for a ride
You can't run
You can't hide

I tell you boys and I tell you true
I fell in love down in Baton Rouge
Yodel lodel love... Yodel lodel Linda Lou

Iko Iko runnin' through my head
Can't remember nothin' that the girl done said
She was a real queen...
You shoulda seen the one that got away
Back to back road drivin' on a Saturday night
Knockin' at the door with the friendly light
Singin' Iko Iko Jockamo Fi Na Ne
