On the day I met you, what a stroke of luck
You were buying you a Pepsi, I was gasin' up my truck
Then Cupid's arrow hit me like a bolt out of the blue
And I fell like a tree at the feet of Linda Lou
Little Linda Lou, you take my breath away
What am I to do when you look at me that way?
Everybody wants you girl, you know it's true
You break a heart every time you turn around
And just like every other guy in town
I've gotta try even if you shoot me down, Linda Lou
I have known some women sweet as they can be
But you were ripe for picking like an apple off a tree
But the look your daddy gave me said, ‽You're forbidden fruitâ€Â
But I want you more than Adam wanted Eve, Linda Lou
Little Linda Lou, little Linda Lou
Linda Lou, Linda Lou, Linda Lou
