FIONA (capo 3)

                            
Way down yonder on the bayou
                            
There lives a little girl-o

Skin so pale

Six feet high

SkInny as a rail

Just one eye

                      DG
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona

                         
Her daddy gone to heaven
                         
Her mamma won't like you

Her brother he's crazy

He just might bite you

Her sister she's pretty

But she just won't do

                      DG
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona


Oh you say she gonna love you

Because you made a little voodoo

Oh but what they didn't tell you

Is it ain't up to you dude
    (4 TIMES)
yeah--yeah

                      DG
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona


You better not cross her

You try to boss her

Then you better duck Mister

Here come a cup and a saucer

                      DG
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona

                                
So if you're going to the bayou
                                
Man I'll tell you all I know

She's got skin to pale

She's six feet high

And she'll look right through you

With just one eye


                      DG
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona
She's the one eyed Fiona


Good Luck and Happy Playing.
