I Love Louie Louie

A fine little song, like no other
 One little gem that launched a million covers
 Three great chords, solid and true
 The duh duh duh that made my whole world kinda come unglued
 Penned by Richard Berry back in 1955
 Started life as an unassuming cha-cha-esque Flip side
 Picked up in the northwest several years later
 Covered by the Kingsmen and the Sonics and the Raiders
 I love Louie Louie, I love Louie Louie, I Love Louie Louie
 Ah ah ah, ah ah
 Ah ah ah, ah ah
 Trashy and catchy and cool and man it really sold
 Couple of takes to one track alright sonic gold
 Sing it from the mountain tops shout it every day
 It should be the national anthem of the USA
 Better than the Beatles yeah yeah I know that's sacrilegious
 But I just calls 'em like I see 'em hey listen, listen, listen
 Rock and Roll will never die, believe me it will stand
 Long as people stomp their feet and shout and clap their hands,
 And sing
 I love Louie Louie, I love Louie Louie, I Love Louie Louie
 Ah ah ah, ah ah
 Ah ah ah, ah ah
 Ah ah ah, ah ah
 Ah ah ah, ah ah
 Okay, let's give it to 'em right now!
 Okay, let's give it to 'em right now!
 Okay, let's give it to 'em right now!
 Okay, let's give it to 'em right now!
 The F.B.I. took it apart to see what made it tick
 J. Edgar was on the case, boy was he a prick
 Investigated by congress but they could not decipher
 They feared what they couldn't understand this proto punk pied piper
 The G-men felt it's power, but they could not subscribe
 At 78, 33, 16 or 45.
 They knew it was something filthy, communist or worse
 Unintelligible at any speed, satanic and perverse
 Whatever it was they hated might be the thing we love
 Raw and unsanitized, unmanaged and unscrubbed
 Little slice of rock and roll to hit you upside your head
 You know it, you love it! Let's go! Yeah, go ahead and sing
 I love Louie Louie, I love Louie Louie, I Love Louie Louie
 Ah ah ah, ah ah
 Ah ah ah, ah ah
 Ah ah ah, ah ah
 Ah ah ah
 Let's Go!
