Jeannie C. Riley – The Ballad Of Louise Lyrics
Artist: Jeannie C. Riley
Song: The Ballad Of Louise
I had a love, he was mine
Said he’d love me all the time
I was sure our love was pure if love can be
Then one morning, without warning
Truth came calling on me
And her name was Louise
I needn’t tell you what she said
I just wanted to be dead
For she didn’t show mercy for me
You should’ve seen her walk away
Into his waiting arms that day
And I watched him stooped to kiss Louise
The hour was late, the night was warm
I hid the bundle beneath my arm
The thought of what I’d soon be doing made me freeze
But without fear, I found them there
Just how and where I knew they’d be
Sleeping cradled in his arms was Louise
Now they close those heavy doors
I’ll never leave here anymore
But I dare not beg forgiveness on my knees
For it was done with careful plans
She’ll never steal another man
For tomorrow, they’ll bury Louise
