In light of certain controversy that the Kingsmen Louie Louie is, or should be, the state song of washington, then, in the interests of fairness and justice, we present both songs for ur reading pleasure. (hey, i shall figure out how to post up a music thread soon. i hope.)

Here are the lyrics to Louie Louie, so you can sing-a-long:
Louie Louie
Oh no, me gotta go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Louie Louie
Oh no, me gotta go

Me fine little girl she waits for me
Me catch a ship across the sea
Me sail the ship by me all alone
Never see how I make it home

Louie Louie
Oh no, me gotta go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Louie Louie
Oh no, me gotta go

Three nights and days I sail the sea
Think of girl constantly
Upon the ship I know she there
I smell the rose up in her hair
Louie Louie

Oh no, me gotta go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Louie Louie
Oh no, me gotta go

Me see Jamaica, the moon above
Won’t be long me see me love
Take her in my arms and then
Tell her I never leave again

Louie Louie
Oh no, me gotta go
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Louie Louie
Oh no, me gotta go
We gotta go now
I said, We gotta go now
Let’s hustle on outta here
Let’s go!
