Louise.
Paul Siebel

They said that Louise was not all bad,
(3rd)
It was written on the walls and window shades,
↓ ↓ ↓
And though she'd act the little girl,
(3rd)
A deceiver don't believe her that's her trade.
↑ ↑ ↑ (3rd)
Sometimes a bottle perfume,
↑ ↑ ↑ (3rd)
Flowers and maybe some lace,
↑ ↑ ↑ (3rd) (5th)
Men brought Louise ten-cent trinkets,
(3rd)
Their intentions were easily traced.
C ↓ ↓ ↓G7
And every body knew at times she cried,
Ah but women like Louise well they get by.

And every- body thought it kind of sad,
(3rd)
when they found Louise in her room,
C ↓ ↓ ↓G7
They'd always put her down below their kind,
(3rd)
Still some cried when she died that afternoon.
↑ ↑ ↑ (3rd)
Louise rode home on the mail train,
↑ ↑ ↑ (3rd)
Some where to the South I heard them say,
↑ ↑ ↑ (3rd) (5th)
Too bad it ended so ugly,
Too bad she had to go this way.
C ↓ ↓ ↓G7
And the wind is blowing cold tonight,
So good night Louise, goodnight.
