Does anyone even ~know~ the lyrics to Louie Louie? Beyond "Louie Louie, oh oh, we gotta go"....

I know someone will probably look them up, but that's not really the point. The song is excellent high school marching band fare.

Well, there's a part that goes "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah," but other than that... ;)

You're right, it isn't the point. But here they are anyway:

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

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.

Okay, let's give it to 'em, right now!

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

Let's take it on outa here now
Let's go!!

Rush read the lyrics today. There is absolutely nothing the least bit offensive in the lyrics, other than being unintelligible. So what, they weren't going to sing it anyway.
