When you heard this version on the radio, you knew the DJ had left the booth for the little room with no windows.

Actual lyrics below:

Mad tooth bar chin-up, box zing outta her hair now
Still do the modern day whack-a-mole ditto-o-o
What's that?
Good bartender, I'da hat-beer 'n' head out
I said I wouldn't do it if a poodle had a lid on

Name the "song" and you win nothing!!!



“Posterity! You will never know how much it cost the present Generation to preserve your Freedom! I hope you will make good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in Heaven, that I ever took half the Pains to preserve it.”
― John Adams

Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night

Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night

Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night

[Verse 1]
Madman drummers bummers
Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder
Feelin' kinda older
I tripped the merry-go-round

With this very unpleasin'
Sneezin' and wheezin'
The calliope crashed to the ground
The calliope crashed to the ground!

What did you dream?
It's alright, we told you what to dream
You dreamed of a big star
He played a mean guitar






Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

The definition of the words we used, carry a meaning of their own...

Good one. Everyone was convinced that the song had sexual overtones until it was determined by the FCC that the lyrics were unclear at any speed. It was then allowed to be played on the radio.

Think of the lyrics as a story told by a Jamaican sailor or fisherman.

Louie Louie, oh no, you take me where ya gotta go, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby
Louie Louie, oh baby, take me where ya gotta go

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

Louie Louie, oh no no no, me gotta go, oh no
Louie Louie, oh baby, me gotta go
Three nights and days I sailed the sea
Me think of girl constantly
On the ship, I dream she there
I smell the rose in her hair

Louie Louie, oh no, me gotta go, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby
Louie Louie, oh baby, me gotta go
Okay, let's give it to 'em right now

Me see
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 never leave again

Louie Louie, oh no, me gotta go, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby
Louie Louie, oh baby, me gotta go
I said me gotta go now
Let's hustle on out of here
Let's go

Yes, we had some strange songs in the '50's.
