HALÉ, HEY LOUISE [1982 CBS 7” A 2011] (the cover-version of MAC MONO CREW 1980)

Halé, hey Louise - halé, Louise
Halé, hey Louise - halé, Louise

In a middle sleepy town (it was way down, near the border)
lived the crazy family (and the box wore “Mrs. Brown”).
She’s a battle-broad (indeed!) but she’s got a lovely daughter.
With her face (so nice and sweet) I was really falling in love.
She’s so pretty, young and shy.
When I see her, I feel high.

Refrain:
All the guys know your name
trying to play that same old game.
Halé, hey Louise - halé, Louise
Halé, hey Louise - halé, Louise

Day by day and night by night, dream-and-sleep is of that young girl.
Always want to hold her tight. And I hope, my dreams come true.
But she never walks alone ’cause her mother was a dragon
and so heartless as a stone. So I sent this letter to her:
“You’re so pretty, young and shy.
When I see you, I feel high.”

Halé, hey Louise - halé, Louise
Halé, hey Louise - halé, Louise
Halé, hey Louise - halé, Louise
Halé, hey Louise - halé, Louise

After years I found a way. And I married her old mother.
Now I see her every day and I’m closer to my love.
Now I finally got them both. It’s a funny situation.
But I still can’t get too close just to whisper in her ear:
“You’re so pretty, young and shy.
When I see you, I feel high.”
