[Verses]
E
I got a call from my baby, said she fed up with me
A E
Said she's found another lover in another city
B7 A E
Said she's doing fine in New Orleans
E
Now she got me pacing, huh, wondering where'd I go wrong
A E
Got me going in circles like the merry-go-round
B7 A E
Gonna take the west train to Louisiana in the morning
E
Sweet little girl from the ninth ward of New Orleans
The way she dancing, you could see her from Tennessee
A E
Up under that red dress are legs long as the bayou trees
B7 A E B7
She got a golden smile, I know she's the one for me in the room
E A
She's a-twistin' and a-groovin', shakin' and a-movin'
E A
She don't know what she doin' to me, I
E A
Love the way that you dance, and honey, I've got a question:
F# B7
Baby, would you be my queen?
E
All right now
E
Her name was Eartha was her name, I could never forget
Just like the way she dipped on the bronze-tiled floor
A
Honey was movin' with ease, each and every step
E
So good that baby had my eyes at her glow
B7 A
No shiny jewelry, still the brightest thing illuminatin' the room
E A
That girl is twistin' and a-groovin', shakin' and a-movin'
E A
She don't know what she doin' to me, I
E A
Love the way that you dance, and honey, I've got a question:
F# B7
Baby, would you be my queen?

Ooh, ooh, baby
Ooh, ooh, baby

Ooh, ooh, baby

Ohh, ooh, baby

Ooh, that baby got a golden smile, I know she's the one for me in that room
