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