Ma jolie how do you do,
mon nom est Jean Guy Thibault LerouxI come from east of Gatineau,
my name is Jean Guy ma jolieJ'ai une maison à la fontaine,
where we can live if you marry meUne belle maison à la fontaine,
where we will live you and meOh Louise oh oh oh oh ohTous les matins au soleil I will work till work is doneTous les matins au soleil I didi work till work was doneAnd one day the foreman said Jean Guy we must let you goEt puis mon nom est pas bon at the mill anymoreOh Louise I'm losing my headm I'm losing my headMy kids are small four and three et la bouteille she's mon amieI drink the rum till I can't see,
it hides the shameLouise does not see a carousel turns in my headAnd I can't hide oh no no no noAnd the rage turned in my head on LouiseI struck her down down on the groundI'm losing my mind,
I'm losing my mindEn septembre soixante trois kids are gone and so is LouiseOntario they did go near la ville de TorontoNow my tears they roll down,
tous les jours uh uh uh uh uhAnd I remenber the days ans the promises that we madeOh Louise ma jolie Louise,
ma jolie LouiseMa jolie how do you do,
mon nom est Jean Guy Thibault Leroux
