[Chorus]
Well I got a little gal called Cincinnati Lou
I don't know nothing that she can't do
She can drink more beer than a 2-ton truck can haul
She's the belle of the ball Cincinnati Lou

[Verse 1]
She's got a way of rolling them eyes
Makes me think of paradise
I don't mean heaven just a plain old pair of dice
She can roll 'em nice Cincinnati Lou

[Verse 2]
She can make a rooster crow for days
Make grandpa throw his cane away
She can make an ant eat a great big bale of hay
She's just that way Cincinnati Lou

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Well I got a little gal called Cincinnati Lou
I don't know nothing that she can't do
She can drink more beer than a 2-ton truck can haul
Shе's the belle of thе ball Cincinnati Lou
