    Yep, that's what Lena was referring to. Thanks for posting the video.

    Another "car song" from 1963.

    And she'll have fun fun fun till her daddy takes the T-bird away....

    My favorite Beach Boys song. They borrowed some of Chuck Berry's opening licks for this one

    BabyLove and I worked out the lyrics below together, understanding the easy stuff and then trying to stay on theme and dialect or whatever, plus a little suggestion here and there from others. When this song first came out, some of the critics said that it was a great song! but totally unintelligible! Maybe now it's better audio products, headphones, earbuds as well as better remastering, remixing, stereo separation and all of that, so that we can understand a lot more than they could 40 or 50 years ago.

    Or maybe those critics were just stupid.

    So anyway, this is what we came up with....

    Ah Louie Louie
    Oh no baby we gotta go
    Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah baby
    Louie Louie
    Oh baby said we gotta go

    A fine little girl she waiting for me
    Me catch a ship ah-cross the sea
    Me sailed that ship ah all alone
    Me nevva think how I'll make it home

    Ah Louie Louie
    Yeah yeah yeah now
    Baby we gotta go
    Oh no
    Said Louie Louie
    Oh baby take me where ya gotta go

    (F**k!!)

    3 nights and days I sail the sea
    Me think of girl aw constantly
    Ah on that ship I dream she there
    I smell the rose ah in her hair

    Ah Louie Louie
    Oh no baby we gotta go
    Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah baby
    Louie Louie
    Oh baby baby we gotta go
    Ok let's give it to 'em right now!

    (Guitar solo. Actually a duet, there are two of them. Dualing guitars!)

    Me see ..... (oops)
    Me see Jamaica, the moon above
    It won't be long me see me love
    Me take her in my arms and then
    I tell her I'll nevva leave again

    Ah Louie Louie
    Oh no say it we gotta go
    Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
    Said ah Louie Louie
    Oh baby said we gotta go
    I said we gotta go now
    Let's hustle on outa here hah?
    Let's go!!
