Too Tall To Mambo Lyrics & Chords By Jimmy Hall

I got a woman who stands six-foot-four
Her head on the pillow
and her feet on the floor

Too tall to mambo
My baby's too tall to mambo
My girl is too tall to mambo
but I love my baby just the same

Way down on Tchoupitoulas in Louisiana
had to stop and buy myself some elevator shoes.

Too tall to mambo
My baby's too tall to mambo
My girl is too tall to mambo
but I love my baby just the same

When it comes to saxophone
you know Jerry Lee can do it all
but when he tries to dance
you know he....on the wall.

Too tall to mambo
My baby's too tall to mambo
My girl is too tall to mambo
but I love my baby just the same

She got arrested one time;
she didn't need no bail.
She stood up for the judge
"She's too tall to jail!"

Too tall to mambo
My baby's too tall to mambo
My girl is too tall to mambo
but I love my baby just the same
