Little Did I Know Songtext

[billy mccovery/greg crowe/dave gibson]

Little jolena, a dark haired darlin'
Skin of ivory, angel eyes
Every man in louisiana wanted her sweet love
But she swore on the bible, she was all mine

Hey little did i know, she was wild as the bayou
ii .!c l,!k bf
Catch a man on a cane pole, hang his heart on the line
I thought i could hold her, me oh my oh
Little did i know, she had bigger fish to fry

My brother tried to warn me, mama she scorned me
My friends all told me, i was under her spell
But i wouldn't listen, i was lovesick
Without jolena life would be a living hell

Hey little did i know, she was wild as the bayou
ii .!c l,!k bf
Catch a man on a cane pole, hang his heart on the line
I thought i could hold her, me oh my oh
Little did i know, she had bigger fish to fry

At the church in the wildwood standin' at the alter
Little jolena never showed
I heard later on she left with a dandy
And headed down to mexico

Hey little did i know, she was wild as the bayou
ii .!c l,!k bf
Catch a man on a cane pole, hang his heart on the line
I thought i could hold her, me oh my oh
Little did i know, she had bigger fish to fry
Hey little did i know, she had bigger fish to fry
