They call the lady Louisville Lou, oh what that vamping baby can do, she is the most
heart-breakingest, shimmy-shakinest that the world ever knew, she's got the kind of
loving that holds them, big black eyes and she rolls them, what lips, they're pips, and no more
conscience than a snake has hips, and when she struts her feathers and plumes, her
poters drop their mops and their broom, you ought to see them trailing her, inhaling her perfume,
and even old black Joe who is old and bent, sold his crutches just to pay her rent, brother,
here's my warning to you, keep away from Louisville Lou, hey Mose, yes Jasper, you a Louisville boy ain't you, yes I sure am, well how's
everything there, everything's fine, my boy's going to school, going to school eh, what grade is he in now,
oh he's about the 12th grade, is he through with his ABC's, yeah man he's passed that, he's way up there,
other day he come home and guess what he asked me for, what was that, asked me for an encyclopedia,
did you give it to him, I said no, let him walk like I did, when she struts her feathers and plumes,
poters drop their mops and their brooms, you ought to see them trailing her, inhaling her perfume,
even old black Joe who is old and bent, sold his crutches just to pay her rent, brother, here's my
warning to you, keep away from Louisville Lou, look out for Louisville Lou.
