Got me gAoing in circles like the merry-go-roEund

ESweet little girl from the ninth ward of New Orleans
The way she dancing, you could see her from Tennessee
AUp under that red dress are legs long as the bayou tErees
She got a gB7olden smile, I kAnow she's the one for me in the rEoom B7
She's a-tEwistin' and a-groovin', Ashakin' and a-movin'
