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. ↑ ↑ ↑ (3rd) ↑ ↑ ↑ (3rd) ↑ ↑ ↑ (3rd) (5th) C ↓ ↓ ↓G7 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.
