Louisville Roll

[Verse 1]
I'm on a Louisville roll, going down, down, down
Down to the Ohio, just to knock around
You know I met a girl from Knoxville Town
Oh

[Verse 2]
She had bright red curls and her eyes were brown
I fell in love at first sight, yes I saw the light
But she did not agree, laughed at me, oh no

[Verse 3]
This story has been told before
Since days before the Civil War
I'm just a poor lost soul, on a Louisville roll

[Verse 4]
The only girl who touched my heart
She took and tore it all apart
I'm just a poor lost soul, on a Louisville roll

[Verse 5]
I loved a girl from Knoxville Town, from Knoxville, Tennessee
Don't know why she did not love me
For my life I could not see
I just know she broke my hеart
Broke it for the very first timе

[Verse 6]
Go down you Knoxville girl, you cannot be mine
You cannot be mine
You cannot be mine
