Subject: Lyr Add: LOUISE (sung by Ramblin' Jack Elliott)
Thanks Stewie I have tried all the search engines and logical sites I can find, There are a lot of "Louises " about but not the right one. I have also trawled CD sites for "Louise" and Sonny Terry & Brownie Macgee Sing a "Louise " but I dont know if it is the same one. I have posted what I have below
Louise ASB Ramblin Jack Elliott
They say you're seeing someone, You're wearing his ring They say you laughed when you heard my name They say he takes you dancing, he holds you so near They say he'll buy you any thing, Tell me, am I foolish, I don't believe these stories Darlin I'll be comin home soon,
Chorus Louise, Louise its true, tell it, tell it, to me
I know you will not see me, But I hear you have a daughter I hear she shares my eyes, They say she calls him father, And how he is proud of her, And he believes all of your lies. But for all your faithless duties? I'd give all my tomorrows If you're still thinking of me .... Chorus
Bridge
Took a job in Tennessee to build a life for us, ? ? to break apart Repeat 1st verse & Chorus
