Looking for a job on the hill

the president should

but I don't think he will

my stepfather's name is bill

he's married to my mom

and a little white pill

chorus:

ah, louise, won't somebody, please

take me away

far from gone, roatan

out on the carribean

she had all the colors

of the rainbow in her hair

we all wanted to kiss her

so I took the dare

then they tied all the cans to

the back of our wagon

in the end it was just our

love that was draggin'

chorus:

ah, louise, won't somebody, please

take me away

far from here where I disappeared

from your eyes a long time ago

bridge:

chances are

i guess worth the taking

you follow your heart

though it keeps on breaking

and in the light of dawn

soon I'll be gone

like a song in your thoughts

all alone while you're sleeping

i was living life on my own

till I got a call

took the long ride home

to take care of the ones who took care of me

in my highly dysfunctional family

stripped of his clothes

cursing the cancer

god's only got so many prayers

he can answer

‘cause with millions of eyes

and millions of souls

somebody's bound to be

left in the cold

Chorus:

ah, louise, won't you help me please

take me away

far from now

won't you show me how

to get on with

the rest of my days
