Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Time just flies
[Verse 2]
The clock rings and it's half past eleven
Can't believe it but the time just flies
Soon I'll be on a cruise into Heaven
Hearin' stories and a thousand lies
About the things that I never do
Experience that I don't have
It's kinda scary, I'm the big Queen Mary
Gotta get it, gotta do it fast
Gotta grab a piece of paper
Wish I could find my pen
What am I taking ya?
What am I waitin' for?
[Verse 3]
I gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
And I can't leave a thing behind
Gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
For every different change of mind
I gotta pack it for every reason
Every season, be it night or day
I gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
I love my Louie when I go away
[Verse 4]
(Doobie, doobie, doobie, pack up the Louie)
We're gonna pack it up every day
(Doobie, doobie, doobie, pack up the Louie)
Lock it up and we are on our way
(Doobie, doobie, doobie, pack up the Louie)
Pack it up and we are on our way
(Doobie, doobie, pack up the Louie)
(Doobie, doobie, pack up the Louie)
[Verse 5]
What you say?
[Verse 6]
First stop is gonna be Buenos Aires
Tangolissimo all night long
Two days and we're headin' off to Rio
Carnivaling from morning till dawn
Then I'll samba as queen Señorita
Do Havana down the Emerald Way
But before I get on the liner
Some gotta go, some gotta stay
So I'll grab a piece of paper
Tear it out of my cahier
Next time I'm not hesitatin'
I think I'm leavin' today
[Verse 7]
I gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
And I can't leave a thing behind
Gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
For every different change of mind (Different change of mind)
Gotta pack it for every reason (Every reason)
Every season, be it night or day (Night or day)
I gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
I love my Louie when I go away
[Verse 8]
(All aboard Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro, Havana and the Emerald way)
[Verse 9]
I gotta get to Pier 19 (All aboard)
Pier 19 on the West side
Is there a porter somewhere (I need a porter)
For a lady in despair
Can you help little me? (Can you help?)
Get this fabulous trunk in the air
[Verse 10]
I gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie
And I can't leave a thing behind (Can't leave a thing behind)
Gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie (Pack up the Louie)
For every different change of mind (For every different change of mind)
I gotta pack it for every reason (For every reason)
Every season, be it night or day
I gotta pack, gotta pack up the Louie (Pack up the Louie)
I love my Louie when I go away
[Verse 11]
(Doobie, doobie, doobie, pack up the Louie)
(We're gonna pack it up every day)
(Doobie, doobie, doobie, pack up the Louie)
Lock it up and we are on our way
(Doobie, doobie, doobie, pack up the Louie)
(Pack it up and we are on our way)
(Doobie, doobie, pack up the Louie)
(And I'm the Louie and we're on our way)
