THEY ALL SAID LOUISE WAS NOT HALF BAD
D E A
IT WAS WRITTEN ON THE WALLS AND THE WINDOW SHADES
A B7
AND HOW SHE'D ACT THE LITTLE GIRL
D E A
THE DECEIVER, DON'T BELIEVE HER, THAT'S HER TRADE
D E A
SOMETIMES A BOTTLE OF PERFUME
D E A
FLOWERS AND MAYBE SOME LACE

MEN BROUGHT LOUISE 10 CENT TRINKETS
B7 E
THEIR INTENTIONS WERE EASILY TRACED
A B7
NOW EVERYBODY THOUGHT IT KINDA SAD
D E A
WHEN THEY FOUND LOUISE IN HER ROOM
A B7
THEY'D ALL PUT HER DOWN BELOW THEIR KIND
D E A
STILL SOME CRIED WHEN SHE DIED THIS AFTERNOON
D E A
LOUISE RODE HOME ON THE MAIL TRAIN
D E A
SOMEWHERE TO THE SOUTH I HEARD 'EM SAY
D E F#m
TOO BAD IT ENDED SO UGLY
B7 E
TOO BAD SHE HAD TO GO THAT WAY
A B7
BUT THE WIND IS BLOWIN COLD TONIGHT
D E A
GOOD NIGHT LOUISE GOOD NIGHT
