American Ballads and Folk Songs
Chorus:
O Louisiana girls, won't you come out tonight?
Won't you come out tonight?
Won't you come out tonight? I'll give you half a dollar if you'll come out tonight
And dance by the light of the moon. With a hole in her stockin' an' her heel kep' a-rockin',
An' her toe kep' a-knockin',
An' her heel kep' a-rockin', I'll dance with a girl with a hole in her stockin',
We'll dance by the light of the moon.
As I was lumberin' down the street,
Down the street, down the street, As I was lumberin' down the street
I met a girl named Sue.
This handsome girl I chanced to meet,
Chanced to meet, chanced to meet, This handsome girl I chanced to meet,—
Oh, she was fair to view.
