John Jennings - Down At The Twist And Shout lyrics

[Chorus] Saturday night and the moon is out I want to head on over to the Twist and Shout Find a two-step partner and a Cajun beat When it lifts me up I'm going to find my feet Out in the middle of a big dance floor When I hear that fiddle want to beg for more Going to dance to a band from a-Louisiana tonight [Verse 1] Well I never have wandered down to New Orleans Never have drifted down a bayou stream But I heard that music on the radio And I swore some day I was going to go Down Highway 10 past Lafayette To Baton Rouge and I won't forget To send you a card with my regrets Because I'm never going to come back home [Chorus] Saturday night and the moon is out I want to head on over to the Twist and Shout Find a two-step partner and a Cajun beat When it lifts me up I'm going to find my feet Out in the middle of a big dance floor When I hear that fiddle want to beg for more Going to dance to a band from a-Louisiana tonight [Verse 2] They got a alligator stew and a crayfish pie A Gulf storm blowing into town tonight Living on the delta's quite a show They got hurricane parties every time it blows But here up north it's a cold cold rain And there ain't no cure for my blues today Except when the paper says, "BeauSoleil is coming into town" Baby let's go down [Chorus] Saturday night and the moon is out I want to head on over to the Twist and Shout Find a two-step partner and a Cajun beat When it lifts me up I'm going to find my feet Out in the middle of a big dance floor When I hear that fiddle want to beg for more Going to dance to a band from a-Louisiana tonight [Verse 3] Bring your mama, bring your papa, bring your sister too They got lots of music and lots of room When they play you a waltz from 1910 You going to feel a little bit young again Well you learned to dance with your rock and roll You learned to swing with a do-si-do But you learn to love at the fais-so-do When you hear a little Jolie Blon [Chorus] Saturday night and the moon is out I want to head on over to the Twist and Shout Find a two-step partner and a Cajun beat When it lifts me up I'm going to find my feet Out in the middle of a big dance floor When I hear that fiddle want to beg for more Going to dance to a band from a-Louisiana tonight
