Sweet Marie

In Baton Rouge I found her, De Queen Avenue
Neck full-a pearls, alligator tattoo
French beret, pocket beads
Ain't nobody like my Sweet Marie

She gotta have some kinda PhD
Wish I had some-a those smarts in me
Her wild, gypsy soul is all I need
Ain't nobody like my Sweet Marie

That Cajun queen, she got my heart
Even a smile just tears me all apart
Big brown eyes, she's somethin' to see
Ain't nobody like my Sweet Marie

I like the way she walks in platform shoes
Yeah 'n' that party girl really knows her booze
She's one-of-a-kind, real good to me
Ain't nobody like my Sweet Marie

That Cajun queen, she got my heart
Even a smile just tears me all apart
Maybe it's fate, we're meant to be
Ain't nobody like my Sweet Marie
