Intro:
Verse 1:
Let me tell ya 'bout the place,
Somewhere up New York way.
Where the people are so gay;
Twisting the night away.
Here they have a lot of fun,
Putting trouble on the run.
Man, you find the old and young;
Twisting the night a-way. They're...
Chorus 1:
Twisting, Twisting, everybody's feeling great.
Twisting, Twisting, they're Twisting the night a-way.
Verse 2:
Here's a man in evening clothes,
How he got here I don't know.
Man, you gotta see him go;
Twisting the night away.
He's dancing with a chick in slacks,
She's moving up and back.
Oh man, there ain't nothing like;
Twisting the night a-way. They're...
Chorus 2:
Twisting, Twisting, everybody's feeling great.
Twisting, Twisting, they're Twisting the night a-way. Let's Twist awhile;
Break:
(Lean up, lean back, lean up, lean back).
(Wa-tusi, now Fly, now Twist), they're Twisting the night a-way.
Verse 3:
Here's a fella in blue jeans,
Dancing with an older queen.
Who's dolled up in a diamond ring and,
Twisting the night away.
Man, you gotta see her go,
Twisting to the rock'n'roll.
Here you find the young and old,
Twisting the night a-way. They're...
Chorus 3:
Twisting, Twisting, man, everybody's feeling great.
They're Twisting, Twisting, they're Twisting the night a-way.
One more time...
Coda:
(Lean up, lean back, lean up, lean back).
(Wa-tusi, now Fly, now Twist)...
(Fade)
