Liverpool Lou

(Written by Dominic Behan)

 

Chorus

 

    Oh Liverpool Lou, lovely Liverpool Lou

    Why can’t you behave just like other girls do

    Why must my poor heart keep following you

    Stay home and love me, my Liverpool Lou

 

1. When I go out walking, I hear people talking

     School children playing, I hear what they’re saying

     They’re saying you’ll grieve me, that you will deceive me

    Some morning you’ll leave me, all packed up and gone

 

Chorus

 

2. The sounds from the river, keep telling me ever

    That I should forget you, like I’ve never met you

    Oh tell me their song love, was never more wrong love

    Say I belong love, to my Liverpool Lou
