Louise
Well
they all said louise was not half bad
It was written on the walls and window shades
And how she'd act the little girl
A deceiver, don't believe her that's her trade
Sometimes a bottle of perfume,
Flowers and maybe some lace
Men brought louise ten cent trinkets
Their intentions were easily traced
Yes and everybody knew at times she cried
But women like louise they get by
Well everybody thought it kind of sad
When they found louise in her room
They'd always put her down below their kind
Still some cried when she died this afternoon
Lousie rode home on the mail train
Somewhere to the south i heard it said
Too bad it ended so ugly,
Too bad she had to go this way
Ah but the wind is blowing cold tonight
So good night louise, good night

My
Opening Farewell
A
lady stands before an open window
Looking so far away
She can almost feel the southern winds blow
Gently touching his restless day
He turns from his window to me
Sad smile his apology
Sad eyes reaching to the door
Daylight loses to another evening
Still he spares me words goodbye
Sits alone beside me fighting his feelings
Struggles to speak but in the end can only cry
Suddenly it's so hard to find
The sound of the words to speak his troubled mind
So i'm offering ease to him as if to be kind
There's a train every day
Leading either way
There's a world you know
There's a way to go
I soon believe it's just as well
This is my opening farewell
A child's drawings left there on the table
And a woman's silk is lying on the floor
I would keep them here if i were able
To lock you safe behind it's open door
Suddenly it's so clear to me
That i'd ask you to see what you may never see
Now my kind words find their way back to me
There's a train every day
Leading either way
There's world you know
Got a way to go
I soon believe it's just as well
This is my opening farewell
This is my opening farewell.

Runaway
As
i walk along i wonder what went wrong
With our love, a love that was so strong
And as still walk on i think of the things we've done
Together while our hearts were young
I'm a walking in the rain, tears are falling and i feel a pain
Wishing you were here by me to end this misery
And i wonder, i wo wo wo wo wonder
Why, why why why why why she (you) ran away
And i wonder where she (you) will stay
My little runaway, a run run run run runaway
