Old Hound Louise

from Yokefellow by Gran Bel Fisher

lyrics

Suffering still
of the moonshine from hills
they cook it all up
it’s the good stuff for drinkin’

He sneaks past his wife
in the old double wide
He waste all the days and she waste all the nights
It’s a hard time no offense so just be who you are.
The only way through is the way through the fire

Then he steps on Louise
who’s a big old hound dog
then the heavens around him are all falling apart
His wife wakes up and says that you been at the bar
If you leave here again I’m gonna change all the locks

He remembers the days
Dreams of some foreign place
Waking up without love
in a place you call home
When the sun is the kitchen light
smoking marlboro’s at till night
He speaks with his eyes that say
you’re all gonna die

He waits for a week
for the right attitude
then out with the cows and the warmth of the moon
Old hound Louise she don’t care who you are
They want you to go but you all went to far

No I’m safe from the others
and so safe from you
the way that you’re cursed and the things that you do
A negative Nancy so just be who you are
They want you to go but you all went to far

They said rise up
and sing
We all need something
