Louise Mcghee Lyrics - Original Delta Blues - Son House

You see a little girl they call 

Louise McGhee 

Please do me a favor and shake 

her little hand for me 

I said if you see a little girl 

her name, Louise McGhee 

You know, please do me a favor, shake her little hand for me 

I know a little girl 

like a cow like to chew cud 

Her little low down ways I wish you 

had quit as she would 

You know I love that little thing 

Just like a cow like to chew her cud 

Little low down ways 

I sure wish you'd quit if she would 

Mmm, Lookie here 

If I don't go crazy 

Lookie here 

If I don't go crazy 

Yeah lookie here 

I'm gonna lose my mind 

You know cause I stayed bothered 

Worried all the time 

You know it's a shame 

A dirty shame 

I so sorry the day I ever 

know Louise's name 

Yeah it's a shame 

I said it's a low down dirty shame 

You know I'm so sorry the day 

that I ever known Louise's name 

I say, now come here little girl 

throwing up your dog gone hand 

Cause I've been your dog ever since that I knowed your name 

Don't come here little girl 

I said, throwing up your dog gone hand 

You know I've been your dog honey 

Ever since that I knowed your name 

You know when I leave honey 

I don't want you to cry no more 

I say, when I leave 

I don't want you to cry no more 

I said but when I leave this time honey 

I'm gonna hang crepe on your door 

Hmmmm 

I gets up in the morning with the blues 

3 different ways 

I have two mind to leave here 

I didn't have but one say stay 

I say I gets up in the morning 

I say with the blues 3 different ways 

Yeah I have two mind to leave here 

I didn't have but one say stay 

Honey now if I don't never no more see you 

You forever be on my mind 

If I don't never no more see you 

I say you forever be on my mind 

You know every time I think about you girl 

I just can't keep from crying
