Adalida, pretty little cajun queen
Sweet dixie flower, the belle of the bayou
You're every young man's dream
Adalida, I'd walk through a hurricane
To stand beside you, sweet Adalida
I'd swim the Pontchartrain

Oh no, here you coming down the road
With your cotton dress a-swishing, you getting some attention
From all the boys in the Thibodaux

Oh my, you're really feeling up their eyes
Smiling and a winking, I know what they're thinking
But I'm the only one who loves you so

Adalida, pretty little cajun queen
Sweet dixie flower, the belle of the bayou
You're every young man's dream
Adalida, I'd walk through a hurricane
To stand beside you, sweet Adalida
I'd swim the Pontchartrain

Oh no, the hottest little dish I know
I know you can tell it, you making me so jealous
From my head down to my toes
Oh me, you could make a redneck green
The way that you're a-looking, you got me cooking
And I ain't talking 'bout Etoufee'

Adalida, pretty little cajun queen
Sweet dixie flower, the belle of the bayou
You're every young man's dream
Adalida, I'd walk through a hurricane
To stand beside you, sweet Adalida
I'd swim the Pontchartrain

Adalida, pretty little cajun queen
Sweet dixie flower, the belle of the bayou
You're every young man's dream
Adalida, I'd walk through a hurricane
To stand beside you, sweet Adalida
I'd swim the Pontchartrain

To stand beside you, sweet Adalida
To stand beside you, sweet Adalida
To stand beside you, sweet Adalida
I'd swim the Pontchartrain
