Let me tell you ´bout a place Somewhere up-a New York way Where the people are so gay Twistin´ the night away Here they have a lot of fun
Puttin´ trouble on the run Man, you find the old and young Twistin´ the night away
They´re twistin´, twistin´ Everybody´s feelin´ great They´re twistin´, twistin´ They´re twistin´ the night away

They´re twistin´, twistin´ Everybody´s feelin´ great They´re twistin´, twistin´ They´re twistin´ the night
Let´s twist a while Lean up Lean back Lean up Lean back Watusi Now fly Now twist They´re twistin´ the night away
Here´s a fella in blue jeans Dancin´ with an older queen Who´s dolled up in her diamond rings and
Twistin´ the night away Man, you oughta see her go Twistin´ to the rock and roll Here you find the young and old Twistin´ the night away
They´re twistin´, twistin´, man Everybody´s feelin´ great They´re twistin´, twistin´ They´re twistin´ the night
