[00:10.96] Ma jolie, how do you do?
[00:14.27] Mon nom est Jean-Guy Thibault-Leroux
[00:18.90] I come from east of Gatineau
[00:21.36] My name is Jean-Guy, ma jolie
[00:25.21] J'ai une maison a Lafontaine
[00:28.60] where we can live, if you marry me
[00:32.10] Une belle maison a Lafontaine
[00:35.91] where we will live, you and me
[00:39.36] Oh Louise, ma jolie Louise
[00:46.40] Tous les matins au soleil
[00:48.77] I will work 'til work is done
[00:53.30] Tous les matins au soleil
[00:56.05] I did work 'til work was done
[00:59.94] And one day, the foreman said
[01:04.35] "Jean-Guy, we must let you go"
[01:07.36] Et puis mon nom, y est pas bon
[01:10.65] at the mill anymore...
[01:14.30] Oh Louise, I'm losing my head,
[01:18.23] I'm losing my head
[01:20.47] My kids are small, 4 and 3
[01:23.91] et la bouteille, she's mon ami
[01:27.50] I drink the rum 'tilI I can't see
[01:31.02] It hides the shame Louise does not see
[01:34.98] Carousel turns in my head,
[01:38.16] and I can't hide, oh no, no, no, no
[01:42.06] And the rage turned in my head
[01:45.35] and Louise, I struck her down,
[01:48.86] down on the ground
[01:50.77] I'm losing my mind, I'm losing my mind
[01:55.67] En Septembre '63
[01:58.61] kids are gone, and so is Louise.
[02:03.08] Ontario, they did go
[02:05.84] near la ville de Toronto
[02:09.51] Now my tears, they roll down,
[02:13.02] tous les jours
[02:16.95] And I remember the days,
[02:20.58] and the promises that we made
[02:23.75] Oh Louise, ma jolie Louise, ma jolie Louise
[02:31.57]
