[1st verse:]
|
Goodbye, ev'rybody, I'm on my way to Louisville
|
I feel, oh, so happy I hardly can keep still
|
Although my home is very small, I invite you all
|
If you will come, you'll be welcome any time you call
|
|
[Refrain:]
|
Don't forget Don't forget
|
When you're down in Louisville Louisville, Louisville
|
Just call around, I'll be found in the town directory
|
|
I'll have the table set
|
No fancy dishes
|
But the things you get
|
Will all be delicious
|
And you're just as welcome as can be
|
|
When you get there, take a Jitney bus
|
Call on us
|
I'll have you see the family
|
If you're ever so lucky to be down in Kentucky
|
Don't forget to stop at Louie, Louie, Louisville
|
And call on me
|
|
[2nd verse:]
|
Listen, ev'rybody, we've got the fairest women there
|
Lovely dispositions and locks of golden hair
|
They've got complexions like the rose, ev'rybody knows
|
Nature made them, we parade them dressed in simple clothes
|
