 (Original Key: A)
 Let me tell ya 'bout the place,
 Somewhere up New York ways.
 where the people are so gay;
 Twisting the night away.
 Here they have a lot of fun,
 Putting trouble on the run.
 Man there ain't nothing like;
 Twisting the night a-way.
 Twisting, twisting,
 Everybody's doing great.
 Twisting, twisting,
 They're twisting  the night a-way.
 Here's a fella in blue jeans,
 He's dancing with an older queen.
 Chick's dolled up in diamond ring;
 Twisting the night away.
 Man you gotta see her go,
 Twisting to the rock'n'roll.
 Man, there ain't nothing like;
 Twisting the night a-way.
 Twisting, twisting,
 Everybody's doing great.
 Twisting, twisting,
 They're twisting  the night a-way.
 (Let's twist awhile);
 Lean up,  lean back,
 Lean up,  lean back.
 Wa-tusi, Fly,
 Now twist,
 They're twisting  the night a-way.
 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,
 This chick's moving up and back.
 Man, there ain?t nothing like;
 Twisting the night a-way!.
 Twisting, twisting,
 Everybody's doing great.
 Twisting, twisting,
 They're twisting  the night a-way.
 (Let's twist awhile);
 Lean up,  lean back,
 Lean up,  lean back.
 Wa-tusi, Fly,
 Now twist,
 They're twisting  the night a-way.
 (Repeat to Fade)
