Live 17 Dec 1971 version
Well I got a girlfriend
Mary Lou Watson is her name
Yeah I said I got a girlfriend
Mary Lou Watson is her name
Now she'll tell you that she don't have a lover
But I know that she do just the same
And she's a sweet young thing
Her best friends they all call her Lulu
And she's a sweet young thing
Her best friends they call her Lulu
She might tell you that she don't
But I know that she do, oh yeah
[Long instrumental]
Mr. Dave Sancious!
[Long instrumental]
Yeah she's a sweet young thing
Look like an angel that has set her heart on fire, yeah I think
She's a sweet young thing
She's dressed just like an angel with her heart on fire, oh yeah
You might think she's a butterfly
Boy but that woman ain't no doubt
She's a black widow spider
Oh you know, yeah I got a girlfriend
Mary Louise is her name
Oh buddy I got a girlfriend
Oh sweet Louise, that's her name
She can tell you that she don't love you
But she send you ???
The above lyrics are for a live 17 Dec 1971 performance of MARY LOUISE WATSON at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, NJ, with The Bruce Springsteen Band. The song was played in a full-band arrangement.
This was a triple-bill show with The Bruce Springsteen Band headlining and Southern Conspiracy and Powerhouse opening. The show was held at The Ledge, a club/coffeehouse located within the school's Student Union facility. A poor-quality 35-minute audience recording from this show is in circulation among collectors. It consists of part of The Bruce Springsteen Band's performance.
Much of the above information about the 17 Dec 1971 show is taken from Brucebase.
