Stories - Brother Louie Lyrics

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...(fades)
