    Arrow 70's Rock Song-Need Title or Artist!

    Hi All,

    I'm trying to find this song but I only know these parts of the song:

    "Man it was a hell of a night"

    "She was black as/like the night"

    "Louie, Louie, Louie...(repeated but sounds like"lou-A")"

    Please, please help! Been looking for this song for weeks now.

    Thank you SO much!

    "Brother Louie" by Stories

    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 girl 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-I
    Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
    Louie, Louie you're gonna cry.

    There he stood 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
    Wishin' it was a dream
    Ain't no diff'rence if you're black or white
    Brothers you know what I mean.

    Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
    Louie, Louie, Louie, Lou-I-I
    Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
    Louie, Louie you're gonna cry-y.

    Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
    Louie, Louie, Louie, Lou-I
    Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
    Louie, Louie you're gonna cry.

    Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
    Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie, Lou-I
    Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
    Louie, Louie you're gonna cry.

    Louie, Louie, Louie, Louie
    Louie, Louie, Louie, Lou-I.
    Oh Stewardess..........I speak jive.

    I met Stories Back in the 70's - very cool guys.

    The Stories' version was a remake of the original by Hot Chocolate (of "Every1's a Winner" and "You Sexy Thing" fame). One of the few occasions where I greatly prefer the cover to the original.
