Verse 1:
E
I've known some women in every state
A
From New-York city to the Golden gate
E B
I've lived with some and buddy i've loved 'em all,yes i did
E
But no one woman had a claim on me
A
'Cause i still had a lotta world to see
E B E
And i sometimes stagger,but Sugar,i seldom fall
Chorus:
E A
Then like a hungry man i went to Louisiana
E
Where the lovin' and the livin' was good
A E
Without a care to hide and just as satisfied as i could be
A
A lotta women and wine and not a tie to bind me
E
And behaving just as cool as i could
F#
Till a long-legged,sweet walkin',raven-haired and Cajun lookin'
B
Devil put the sweat on me
A
They call her Smokey,she's a little bit of evil
E
Smokey,right as wrong can be
A
Smokey,she could shake the very devil
E B E
Smokey put the sweat on me
A E B E
Oh,Smokey put the sweat on me
Verse 2:
E
Oh,my pulse is a-beatin' to the clickety-clack
A
Of this one-way ride that's gonna take me back
E B
And my body's just a breathin' in the Mississippi river smell
E
Well my feet wasn't ready yet for settling down
A
But my soul kept tellin' me to turn around
E B E
And the longer i tried to fight the harder i fell
Chorus bis:
E A
And like a hungry man i' going to Louisiana
E
Where the lovin' and the livin' is good
A E
I'll get a brand new bride and be as satisfied as i can be
A
And i won't even mind the world i'm leavin' behind
E
Because i never really thought that i could
F#
Till that long-legged,sweet walkin',raven-haired and Cajun lookin'
B
Devil put the sweat on me
A
They call her Smokey,she's a little bit of evil
E
Smokey,right as wrong can be
A
Smokey,she could shake the very devil
E B E
Smokey put the sweat on me
A E B E
Yeah,Smokey put the sweat on me
A E B E
Oh,Smokey put the sweat on me
