Song lyrics

They call the lady Louisville Lou
And what that vampin' baby can do
She is the most heart-breakinest
Shimmy shakin'est gal you ever knew
She's got the kind of love that holds 'em
Big brown eyes and she rolls 'em
Hot lips, that are pips
And no more conscience than a snake has hips

And when she shakes her feathers and plumes
The porters drop their mops and their brooms
Why you can see them trailin' her
Inhalin' her perfumes
And even Deacon Jones who is old and bent
Sold his crutches just to pay her rent
So, buddy, here's my warnin' to you
Stay away from Louisville Lou

No more conscience than a snake has hips

And when she shakes her feathers and plumes
The porters drop their mops and their brooms
Why you can see them trailin' her
Inhalin' her perfumes
And even Deacon Jones who is old and bent
Sold his crutches just to pay her rent
So, buddy, here's my warnin' to you
Stay away from Louisville
I mean Louisville, Louisville Lou
