Louie Louie Lyrics
CHORUS:
Louie Louie, oh no, said we gotta go
Aye-yi-yi-yi, I
Said Louie louie, oh baby, said we gotta go

A fine little girl, she waitin' for me
Catch a ship across the sea
Sail that ship out all alone
Me never think how I'll make it home

Louie Louie, na-na-na now, said we gotta go, oh no
Said Louie Louie, oh baby, said-a we gotta go

(*)

Three nights and days I sailed the sea
Me think of girl ah constantly
Ah on that ship, I dream she there
I smell the rose ah in her hair

Louie Louie, woah no, said we gotta go,
Aye-yi-yi-yi, I
Said Louie Louie, oh baby, said we gotta go
Okay, let's give it to 'em right now

GUITAR SOLO

Me see...

Me see Jamaica, the moon above
It won't be long me see me love
Take her in my arms again
I'll tell her I'll never leave again

Louie Louie, oh no, said we gotta go
Aye-yi-yi-yi, I
Said Louie Louie, oh baby, said we gotta go
I said me gotta go now
Let's hustle on outta here
Let's go!

(*Did you know:
Right before the second verse, drummer Lynn Easton
audibly curses as he accidentally misses a cue)
