Verse:
A
Let me tell you ʼbout a place
F#m
Somewhere on New York Way
D
Where the people are so gay
E7A
Twistinʼ the night away
Here they have a lot of fun
F#m
Puttinʼ supper on the run
D
Here you find the old and young
E7A
Twistinʼ the night away
Chorus:
Twistinʼ, twistinʼ, everybodyʼs doinʼ great
DE7A
Theyʼre twistinʼ, twistinʼ, twistinʼ the night away
Verse:
Hereʼs a man in evening clothes
How he got here, I donʼt know, but
Man, you oughta see him go
Twistinʼ the night away
Heʼs dancinʼ with a chick in slacks
Sheʼs a-movinʼ up and back
Oh man, there ainʼt nothinʼ like
Twistinʼ the night away
Chorus.
Bridge:
Lean fore! Lean back!
Lean fore! Lean back!
Watusi! Now fly! Now twist!
Yeah, twistinʼ the night away
Verse:
Hereʼs a fella in blue jeans
Dancinʼ with an older queen
Whoʼs wearinʼ diamond rings
Twistinʼ the night away
Man, you oughta see her go
Twistinʼ to the rock and roll
Here you find the young and old
Twistinʼ the night away
Chorus.
Bridge.
