Sheb Wooley - Sweet Chile lyrics

Down by the levee where the riverboats go Lived a Louisiana farmer by the name of Papa Dabro Papa had a daughter with a beautiful smile Everybody called her Sweet Chile Sweet Chile (livin' on the bayou) Sweet Chile (livin' on the bayou) Sweet Chile's goin' on seventeen Sweet Chile's gonna be a teenage queen Sweet Chile livin' on the bayou Sweet Chile livin' on the bayou She's much sweeter than sugar cane Sweet Chile's puttin' on curves and things Papa took Sweet Chile into town Buy her a graduation gown Papa said mama would you look at this The way that Sweet Chile fills that dress (Sweet Chile) livin' on the bayou (Sweet Chile) livin' on the bayou (Sweet Chile's goin' on seventeen Sweet Chile's gonna be a teenage queen) (Sweet Chile) livin' on the bayou (Sweet Chile) livin' on the bayou (She's much sweeter than sherry pie) Sweet Chile's gettin' to be courtin' size Down by the river where the sugar cane grows Sweet Chile wears a brand new clothes She's got curves that just won't stop She's big at the little and bottom at the top Sweet Chile livin' on the bayou Sweet Chile livin' on the bayou (Sweet Chile's goin' on seventeen) Sweet Chile's gonna be a teenage queen Sweet Chile livin' on the bayou Sweet Chile livin' on the bayou (She's much sweeter than sugar cane) Sweet Chile's puttin' on curves and things Down by the levee where the riverboats go Kids all dance to rock'n roll Sweet Chile's rockin' till the break of day I never saw anybody wiggle that way (Sweet Chile) livin' on the bayou (Sweet Chile) livin' on the bayou (Sweet Chile's goin' on seventeen Sweet Chile's gonna be a teenage queen) (Sweet Chile) livin' on the bayou (Sweet Chile) livin' on the bayou (She's much sweeter than sherry pie) Sweet Chile's gettin' to be courtin' size Sweet Chile's puttin' on curves and things Big at the little and bottom at the top Squeeze squeeze Chile
