They all said Louise was not half bad
C D G
It was written on the walls and window shades
D
And how she'd act the little girl
C D G
A deceiver, don't believe her that's her trade
C D G
Sometimes a bottle of perfume,
C D G
Flowers and maybe some lace
C D G G/B Em
Men brought Louise ten cent trinkets
Am A D
Their intentions were easily traced
G D
Well everybody thought it kind of sad
C D G
When they found Louise in her room
D
They'd always put her down below their kind
C D G
Still some cried when she died this afternoon
C D G
Louise rode home on the mail train
C D G
Somewhere to the south I heard em say
C D G G/B Em
Too bad it ended so ugly,
Am D
Too bad she had to go this way
G D
Ah but the wind is blowing cold tonight
C D G
Good night Louise, good night
