Here is the answer to the age old question - just waht the heck are they singing about in the song Louie Louie? Well my brothers and sisters, here you go: poor SOB, missin his lady, drowning his sorrows, Louie is da bartenda, here ya go...

Louie Louie, me gotta go
Louie Louie, me gotta go

Fine little girl she waits for me
Me catch a ship for to cross the sea
Me sail the ship all alone
Me never think me make it home

Louie Louie, me gotta go
Louie Louie, me gotta go

Three nights and days me sail the sea
Me think of the girl constantly
On the ship, I dream she there
I smell the rose in her hair

Louie Louie, me gotta go
Louie Louie, me gotta go

Me see Jamaica’s moon above
It won’t be long, me see my love
I take her in my arms and then
Me tell her I never leave again

Louie Louie, me gotta go
Louie Louie, me gotta go
