CALILOU

D             E—00-2-3--|>>>>>>G
Well I'm finally goin' back to Louisiana 
  D                          G
Runnin' and thumbin' all the way 
         D                     G
Started out way out in California 
       D                                 G  
I been makin' bout five hundred miles a day 

   D                                   G
I covered all the beaches on the west coast 
     D                   G
From Mexico Crason City Bay 
    D                         G
But Calilou was not in California 
                 D                       G
That's where her daddy came from by the way 

           D                    G
And by the way her mother was a Cajun 
    D                                    G
She came from New Orleans I've heard her say 
                             D             G
And it's just like a girl to wanna see her mama 
     D                              G
So I might find her there along the way 
CHORUS:
        D                                      G                             
Calilou Calilou well they should have call you restless 
                               D
Well they should have call you drifter 
     D                         G       A          D            
Yeah they should have call you trouble instead of Calilou 

D                                  G
I recall the first time that I saw her 
  D                                G
I picked her up near Phoenix in my car 
     D                               G
Just another beauty seekin' fame and fortune 
      D                                 G
And I told her if she should be a movie star 

    D                           G
The next time I saw her was Tucumcari 
    D                              G
She served my bowl of chili with a smile 
  D                                      G
I said it's been a year since I last saw you 
       D                                  G
Wonder how'd you like to share a few good miles 


D                                      G
Well the justice of the peace was very sleepy 
  D                                 G
I held her in my arms a whole night long 
  D                                    G
I whispered words like settle down and family 
           D                      G
And when I woke up my Calilou was gone 

CHORUS:
        D                                      G                             
Calilou Calilou well they should have call you restless 
                               D
Well they should have call you drifter 
     D                         G       A          D            
Yeah they should have call you trouble instead of Calilou

CHORUS:
        D                                      G                             
Calilou Calilou well they should have call you restless 
                               D
Well they should have call you drifter 
     D                         G       A          D            
Yeah they should have call you trouble instead of Calilou
