McDowell's begins:

I said Louise, the sweetest girl I know
I said Louise, the sweetest girl I know
She caused me to walk (from) Chicago down the Gulf of Mexico

Murphy's begins similarly and then his lyrics diverge from McD's. Because of his slurring, McDowell's version would be a challenge to transcribe. I don't have the time or inclination to grapple with it at the moment. Maybe okthen has it. It must be on the web somewhere.
