[Verse 1]
E                                                D
I'm going to tell you a story about old Mary Lou
E                                                D
I mean the kind of a girl that make a fool of you
E                                          D
She make a young man old and an old man pay
E  N.C.                                      E
The way she took my money was a crying shame
 
[Chorus]
E                                              D
Mary Lou, Mary Lou she took my watch and chain
E                                           D
Mary Lou, Mary Lou she took my diamond ring
E                                   D
She took the keys to my Cadillac car
E  N.C.                              E
Jumped in my caddy and she drove afar
 
[Verse 2]
E                           D
Put a detective on her trail
E                                                   D
The post office thought they'd chase her by the mail
E                                         D
She got picked up and then was put in jail
E  N.C.                               E
Stroked the judge just to go home bail
 
[Chorus]
E                                              D
Mary Lou, Mary Lou she took my watch and chain
E                                           D
Mary Lou, Mary Lou she took my diamond ring
E                                   D
She took the keys to my Cadillac car
E  N.C.                              E
Jumped in my caddy and she drove afar
 
[Verse 3]
E                                  D
She left Detroit to go to Kalamazoo
E                                       D
Made her a fortune out of fools like you
E                                                   D
Met her a rich man who was married and had some kids
E  N.C.                                   E
Stroked that cat until he flipped his lid
 
[Chorus]
E                                              D
Mary Lou, Mary Lou she took my watch and chain
E                                           D
Mary Lou, Mary Lou she took my diamond ring
E                                   D
She took the keys to my Cadillac car
E  N.C.                              E
Jumped in my caddy and she drove afar
 
[Verse 4]
E                                       D
She came back into town about a week ago
E                                      D
Told me she's sorry she had hurt me so
E                                     D
I had a '65 ford and a two dollar bill
E  N.C.                                         E
The way she took that Lord, it gave me a thrill
 
[Chorus]
E                                              D
Mary Lou, Mary Lou she took my watch and chain
E                                           D
Mary Lou, Mary Lou she took my diamond ring
E                                   D
She took the keys to my Cadillac car
E                                    D
Jumped in my caddy and she drove afar
