Louise Lyrics by Fred McDowell

Mississippi Delta Blues

0

I said, Lou-ee-ise
The sweetest girl I know
I said, Louise
The sweetest girl I know
She called me to warm Chicago
Down the Gulf of Mexico
Now look-a here, Louise
Somebody, fish in my pond
Carryin' all the perches, mama
Grinding all, up my bone
Lord, Louise
Honey, please don't do me wrong
Lord, I ain't had no lovin'
Honey, since Louise been gone
Now look-a here, baby
Across that river long, she's on
Bank a-sand, she don't
Fair deep water, 'clare, she will nev'are
Never land
Lo-ord, Louise
Honey, please don't do me wrong
Lord, I ain't had no lovin'
Honey, since Louise been gone
Now-look-here, made a buoy line
Won't come down, she don't
Fair deep water 'clares, you will'nt, mama
Never land
Lo-oh-oord!
Play us while she'll never land
(guitar)
Another mile
Mama boat made Jackson
Papa lying', hardly 'rrive
Came early mornin'
I swear, mama Lord, late at night
Lord, Louise
Honey, please don't do me wrong
Lord, I ain't had no lovin'
Honey, since Louise been gone
You know yo' ol' hair ain't curly
You know yo ol' teeth ain't pearl
Yeah, ya ain't
Ya' ain't only woman, baby
Gonna share me mama, in this world
Lord, Louise
Honey, please don't do me wrong
Lord, I ain't had no lovin'
Honey, since Louise been gone
I'm go'on tell you somethin', baby
I know you ain't gonna like
Be just time you know
I ain't g'onna take you back
Lord, Louise
Honey, please don't do me wrong
Lord, I had new lovin'
Honey, since Louise been gone
