Thread Name: Lyr Req: A Farmer's Daughter Named Louella
Subject: Lyr Add: A FARMER’S DAUGHTER NAMED LOUELLA
A farmer’s daughter named Loueller Was the prettiest girl for miles around, But that poor girl didn’t have no feller Until one day when she went to town.
She went down to the village depot To watch that evenin’ train come in, And met a drummer from the city With two gold teeth and a walkin’ cane.
They went down to the village drugstore And at the counter they did sat. He filled her full of sasparilla Till she didn’t know where she was at.
Alas! Alack! For pore Loueller! She started something she could not stop. Now ever’ time she gets a nickel, She blows it in on sody-pop.
And in the evenin’s in the summer, At the depot door she waits in vain, And rolls her eyes at ever’ drummer That gits from off that evenin’ train.
