"Pack Up The Louie" lyrics

Time just flies

The clock rings and it's half past eleven
Can't believe it but the time just flies
Soon I'll be on a cruise into heaven
Hearin' stories and a thousand lies
About the things that I never do
Experience that I don't have
It's kinda scary on the Big Queen Mary
Gotta get it, gotta do it fast

Gotta grab a piece of paper
Wish I could find my pen
What am I takin' ya?
What am I waiting for?

I gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
And I can't leave a thing behind
Gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
For every different change of mind
I gotta pack it for every reason
Every season, be it night or day
I gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
I love my Louie when I go away

Louie, Louie, Louie, pack up the Louie
We're gonna pack it up every day
Louie, Louie, Louie, pack up the Louie
Lock it up and we're on our way
Louie, Louie, Louie, pack up the Louie
Pack it up, we're on our way
Louie, Louie, Louie, pack up the Louie
Louie, Louie, Louie, pack up the Louie

First stop is gonna be Buenos Aires
Tangolissimo all night long
Two days and we're headin' off to Rio
Carnivalling from morning 'till dawn
Then I'll samba as Queen Senorita
Do Havana down the Emerald Way
But before I get on the liner
Some gotta go, some gotta stay

So I'll grab a piece of paper
Tear it out of my cahier
Next time I'm not hesitatin'
I think I'm leavin' today

I gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
And I can't leave a thing behind
Gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
For every different change of mind (different change of mind)
I gotta pack it for every reason (every reason)
Every season, be it night or day (night or day)
I gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
I love my Louie when I go away

All aboard, Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro, Havana and the Emerald way

I gotta get to Pier Nineteen (ta ta da da)
Peer Nineteen on the west side
Is there a porter somewhere (I need a porter)
For a lady in despair
Can you help little me (can you help please little me)
Get this fabulous trunk in the air

I gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
And I can't leave a thing behind (can't leave a thing behind)
Gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie (pack up the Louie)
For every different change of mind (for every different change of mind)
I got a pocket for every reason (for every reason)
Every season, be it night or day
I gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
I love my Louie when I go away

Louie, Louie, Louie, pack up the Louie
We're gonna I pack it up every day
Louie, Louie, Louie, pack up the Louie
Lock it up and we're on our way
Louie, Louie, Louie, pack up the Louie
Pack it up, we're on our way
Louie, Louie, Louie, pack up the Louie
And I'm the Louie, we're on our way
