The Actual Lyrics (based on the story of a Jamaican sailor’s ramblings to a bartender)

Louie Louie, oh baby, me gotta go.
Louie Louie, oh baby, me gotta go.

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

Louie Louie, me gotta go.

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

Louie Louie, me gotta go.

Me see Jamaican moon above.
It won't be long me see me love.
Me take her in my arms and then
I tell her I never leave again.

Louie Louie, oh baby, I said we gotta go




I like the phoenetic version better. It just makes more sense.
All I know is my dad had to pay MAJOR penance for singing that song when he was younger. He had slowed his record player down to try to catch some of the words. What he came up with in one of the verses was:
"At night, in bed, I play a little game, F*** all the girls, all kinds of ways"
My grandparents didn't like it too much. Of course, karma is a biatch... I was in 6th grade or so when I forgot my surroundings and started singing "Me so Horny." I got grounded for 3 days.
