Point Juncture, WA - Pearl Of The Quarter lyrics

rate me

On the water down in New Orleans<br />

My baby's the pearl of the quarter<br />

She's a charmer like you've never seen<br />

Singing voulez, voulez, voulez vous<br />

<br />

Where the sailor spends his hard-earned pay<br />

Red beans and rice for a quarter<br />

You can see her almost every day<br />

Singing voulez, voulez, voulez vous<br />

<br />

If you hear from my sweet Louise<br />

Won't you tell her I love her?<br />

And you make it clear when her day is done<br />

She's got a place to go?<br />

<br />

I walked alone down the miracle mile<br />

I met my baby by the shrine of the martyr<br />

She stole my heart with her Cajun smile<br />

Singing voulez, voulez, voulez vous<br />

<br />

She loved the million dollar words I'd say<br />

She loved the candy and the flowers that I bought her<br />

Said she loved me and was on her way<br />

Singing voulez, voulez, voulez vous<br />

<br />

If you hear from my sweet Louise<br />

Won't you tell her I love her?<br />

And you make it clear when her day is done<br />

She's got a place to go?<br />

<br />

My sweet Louise<br />

Won't you tell her I love her?<br />

And you make it clear when her day is done<br />

She's got a place to go?<br />

<br />

My sweet Louise<br />

Won't you tell her I love her?<br />

And you make it clear when her day is done<br />

She's got a place to go?<br />

<br />

My sweet Louise<br />

My sweet Louise<br />

My sweet Louise
