Hi everybody, I'm from the sixties
The time of Louie Louie and little Latin Lupe Lou
And I know we can't have those times back again
But we can have parties like they were then
We need more parties in the USA
We need more parties in the USA
Could there be block parties of which I don't know?
Maybe they 're in neighborhoods where I don't go
Could there be all these parties down some little lane?
With potato chips sitting there and guitar playing
We need more parties in the USA
Well my friends were having a party 'round about nine
Down in Huntington Beach when the police knocked
Well, my friends were just quiet now
They were just drinking coffee and talking
When the officer said someone called up complaining
Everybody kept walking, he said
'Go home, go home, go home, go home'
He said, 'Go home, go home, go home'
And that's no good for
Parties in the USA
That's no good for papa, papa Lupe Lou
No, no good for hang on Sloopy, Sloopy hang on
So people are staying home more, not having fun
A cold cold era has begun, has begun
Now things were bad before, there was lots of loneliness
But in 1965 things were not like this
When we had hang on Sloopy, Sloopy hang on
Oh, oh, yeah and papa, papa Lupe Lou
Shake it, shake it, shake it Lupe, alright
Well could there be block parties of which I know not?
Wild beach parties around some open flame
I know there's got to be parties, I bet there's a lot
But the USA has changed somehow that I can't name
He said
'Go home,go home, go home, go home'
He said, 'Go home, go home, go home'
And that's no good for parties in the USA
No, papa, papa Lupe Lou
Oh yeah
People are moving to California, who hate the beach and things
I think they'd rather watch TV than hear a real person sing
Of course nowadays at parties you got louder stereo equipment
So now if the parties too loud, it's like a radioactive shipment
I say nowadays at parties, for example, you got louder stereo bass
So now if the things too loud, it's like a toxic clean up case
Well nowadays at parties well, they've got louder stereos, right?
So now if it's too loud, it's like a noxious chemical sight
Well, parties in the USA
He said, 'Go home , ho home, go home, oh, oh'
Parties in the USA
But these friends of mine in Huntington Beach
They weren't loud when the officers entered
Like and these officers, man , they weren't mellow
I mean they were so uncentered, they said
'Go home, go home, go home'
That's no good for parties in the USA
We need more papa, papa Lupe Lou
We need more shake it, shake it, shake it, Lupe
We need more parties yeah, in the USA
Alright, yeah, shake it up, shake it up, oh
