As recorded by Bobby Bare (From the 1977 Album ME AND McDILL) [Intro] G D G D G D G D G [Verse 1]
G                D         G
I watch you most every night

               D           G
See you in the front porch lights

                    D        G
You and him sittin' in a swing

              D           G
Radio playin' through the screen.
[Chorus]

Wilma Lou, Wilma Lou

     G                    D        G
Don' let that boy put his hands on you

             D          G
I can see he ain't your kind

                       D        G      D G   D G
He loves your body and not your mind.
[Verse 2]
G             D            G
Every night I watch you hard

                     D        G
A hidin' here in the wreckin' yard

             D          G
Sittin' in a rusty truck

                   D         G
Lettin' mosquitoes eat me up.
[Chorus]

I can see he ain't your kind

He loves your body and not your mind.

G                         D    G
Oh, Wilma Lou, you're too far away

                         D     G
So I sneak up behind his Chevrolet

                   D          G
I hunker down here in the weeds

                   D        G
A little closer so I can see.
[Verse 4]
G                    D          G
I hear the June bugs in the night

                     D     G
See you in the front porch light

                     D         G
I'm goin' home, I've had enough

                   D
God sake Wilma Lou get up.
[Chorus]
D

Don' let that boy put his hands on you

             D          G
I can see he ain't your kind

                       D        G
He loves your body and not your mind.

He loves your body and not your mind
