"Louie Louie" lyrics

"Louie Louie"
(originally by Richard Berry)

Louie Louie, oh baby, I gotta go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Louie Louie, oh baby, I gotta go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

A fine little girl, she waits for me
We catch a ship across the sea
I sailed the ship all alone
I never think that I'll make it home

Louie Louie, oh baby, I gotta go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Louie Louie, oh baby, I gotta go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Three days and nights I sailed the sea
Thinking of girl constantly
On the ship, I dream she there
I smell the rose in her hair

Louie Louie, oh baby, I gotta go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Louie Louie, oh baby, I gotta go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Louie Louie, oh baby, I gotta go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Louie Louie, oh baby, I gotta go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

I see Jamaican moon above
[?]
I take her in my arms and then
Tell her I'll never leave again

Louie Louie, oh baby, I gotta go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Louie Louie, oh baby, I gotta go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
