\begin{verse}
Tous les matins au soleil
I will work 'till work is done
Tous les matins au soleil
I did work 'till work was done
And one day the foreman
Said : {\og}Jean Guy, we must let you go{\fg}
Et puis mon nom y est pas bon
At the mill anymore{\dots}
Oh, oh Louise, I'm loosing my head, I'm loosing my head
\end{verse}
\begin{verse}
My kids are small, four and three
Et la bouteille, she's mon amie
I drink the rhum 'till I can't see
It hides the shame Louise doesn't see
A carroussel turns in my head
And I can't hide, non non non non
And the rage turned in my head
And Louise, I stroke her down
Down on the ground, I'm loosing my mind, I'm loosing my mind
\end{verse}
\begin{verse}
En septembre soixante-trois
Kids are gone, so is Louise
Ontario did they go
Near la ville de Toronto
Now my tears, they roll down
Tous les jours, mmm
And I remember the days
And the promises that we made
Oh, oh Louise, ma jolie Louise, ma jolie Louise
\end{verse}
