She was black
As the night
Louie was whiter than white
Danger
Danger
When you taste brown sugar
Louie fell in love overnight
Nothing bad
It was good
Louie had the best good he could
When he took her home
To meet his mama and papa
Louie knew
Just where he stood
Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
Louie, Louie, Louie, Lou-ah
Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
Louie, Louie
You're gonna cry

There is good
In the night
Knowing what's wrong
From what's right
He took her home
To meet his mama and papa
Man, he had a terrible fight
Louie nearly caused a scene
Wishing
It was a dream
Ain't no difference
If you're black or white
Brothers
You know what I mean
Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
Louie, Louie, Louie, Lou-ah
Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
Louie, Louie
You're gonna cry

Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
Louie, Louie, Louie, Lou-ah
Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
Louie, Louie
You're gonna cry
Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie, Lou-ah
Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
Louie, Louie
You're gonna cry
Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
Louie, Louie, Louie, Lou-ah
