Violvetine - Liverpool Lou

Oh Liverpool Lou, lovely Liverpool Lou

Why don't you behave just like other girls do?

Why must my poor heart keep following you?

Stay home and love me, my Liverpool Lou

When I go out walking, I hear people talking

School children playing, I know 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

Oh Liverpool Lou, lovely Liverpool Lou

Why don't you behave just like other girls do?

Why must my poor heart keep following you?

Stay home and love me, my Liverpool Lou

The sounds from the river keep telling me ever

That I should forget you, like I'd never met you

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

Say I belong, love, to my Liverpool Lou

Oh Liverpool Lou, lovely Liverpool Lou

Why don't you behave just like other girls do?

Why must my poor heart keep following you?

Stay home and love me, my Liverpool Lou
