[Chorus:] Oh Louise, yes you're the sweetest girl I know. Don't you know now Louise, you are the sweetest girl that I know. You made me run from Chicago Oh, to the Gulf of Mexico. Now you know Louise, She's like a rolling stone. Every time she leave a man, He has to grieve alone. Oh Louise, why don't you hurry home? You know, I never had no good loving, Oh Louise, since you've been gone.
Got a girl called Mamie, Treat me nice and kind. I don't care what she do Because Louise is on my mind. [Chorus] Louise ain't so good looking And her hair ain't red, But she cooks my breakfast And I bring it to my bed. [Chorus] Oh Louise, why don't you hurry home? Oh Louise, why don't you hurry home? You made me run from Chicago Oh, to the Gulf of Mexico.
