>> What ARE the lyrics, apart from "Loo-eh, loo-eye, whoa >> baby, we gotta go?"
I got these from http://lyrics.coolfreepages.com. I believe that it is an urban myth that Louie Louie contained swear words, at least in the Kingsmen's version. Perhaps the 1950's "race music" lyrics were raunchier? Louie Louie The Kingsmen (Music and Lyrics by Richard Berry) Louie Louie, oh no Me gotta go Aye-yi-yi-yi, I said Louie Louie, oh baby Me gotta go Fine little girl waits for me Catch a ship across the sea Sail that ship about, all alone Never know if I make it home CHORUS Three nights and days I sail the sea Think of girl, constantly On that ship, I dream she's there I smell the rose in her hair. CHORUS Okay, let's give it to 'em, right now! GUITAR SOLO See Jamaica, the moon above It won't be long, me see me love Take her in my arms again Tell her I'll never leave again CHORUS Let's take it on outa here now Let's go!! Notes : Performed by "Chuck Berry" (1955). There are more than 1000 interpretations
