[Intro]
Shh, here they come

[Verse 1]
Now Louie, Louie had his day
Nothin' gonna change it now
The rats and snakes will never fade away
Not while I'm alive
Hey, hey, hey, hey

[Refrain]
There come the Cossacks
The Road Spiders
The Supergliders
Burnin' trash, flickin' class
All the white trash, yeah
Hey, hey, hey, hey

[Verse 2]
Now Louie, Louie had his time
Seems like only yesterday
Sadie and Hattie got married and moved away
'Cause they had nothin' left to say, yeah

[Refrain]
You with the glasses
I'll see you later
We'll find love, I know
Rockin', reelin', double dealin'
One more time, this time with feelin', yeah
Hey, hey, hey

[Interlude]
Go, boys
Yeah

[Bridge]
(Ooh, pattycake
I love your daughter
I wanna take now
Ooh, pattycake
I love your daughter
I wanna take)
You move so fine
Yeah, what a scene I said
Mmm, kinda aquiline
Yeah, baby, saw through this now
(Ooh, pattycake
I love your daughter
I wanna take now
Ooh, pattycake
I love your daughter
I wanna take)
You smell so good
Yeah, and your shirt's always pressed
You'll be the best inside, my baby
Yeah, I'm all under arrest now

[Verse 3]
Louie, Louie made his mark
On this tender heart of mine
The Jamaican moon don't let it get dark
Though we rock out in the night time, yeah

[Outro]
Let's get on outta here now
Let's go
