the man from utopia meets mary lou

Singer:zappa, frank

well

this is the story of a man who lived in utopia

this is the story of a man who lived in utopia

he was a funny little fella with feet just like i showed ya

well

he had a girl

her name was mary lou

well

he had a girl

her name was mary lou

she did everything for him that she could do

but still

still

still he wouldn't treat her right

but still

still

still he wouldn't treat her right

he would leave in the morning

don't come back till late at night

ahh

mary lou

oh child you big fool

ahh

mary lou

oh child you big fool

you did everything for him that you could do

i'm going to tell you a story about mary lou

i mean the kind of girl who make a fool of you

she'd make a young man groan and a poor man pain

the way she took my money was a cryin' shame

mary lou - she took my watch and chain

mary lou - she took my diamond ring

mary lou - she took my cadillac car

jumped in my kitty and then drove afar

well

she picked up from georgia

moved to kalamazoo

made her a fortune outta fools like you

meet her a rich man who was married and had two kids

she stoked that cat till he flipped his lid mary lou - she took my watch and chain

mary lou - she took my diamond ring

mary lou - she took my cadillac car

jumped in my kitty and then drove afar

well

she came back to town about a week ago

told me she was sorry she had hurt me so

i had a '55 ford and a two dollar bill

the way she took that man she gave me a chill

mary lou - she took my watch and chain

mary lou - she took my diamond ring

mary lou - she took my cadillac car

jumped in my kitty and then drove afar

mary lou

oh child you big fool

ahh

mary lou

oh child you big fool

you did everything for him that you could do

you did everything for him that you could do

you did everything for him that you could do
