Let me tell you about a place. Somewhere up in New York way. Where the people are so gay. Twistin' the night away. Here they have a lot of fun. Putting trouble on the run. Oh man you'll find the old and young. Twistin' the night away. (Chorus). Twistin' twistin' twistin' the night away. Everybody's feeling great. They are twistin' twistin'. Twistin' the night away. Here's a man in evening clothes. How he got here I don't know. But oh man you ought to see him go. Twistin' the night away. He's dancing with a chick in slacks. She's moving up and back. Oh man there ain't nothing like. Twistin' the night away. (Chorus). Let's twist away feet up feet back. Watusi now fly now twist. They're twistin' the night away. Here's a fellow in blue jeans. Dancing with an older queen. Who's dolled up in her diamond rings. Twistin' the night away. Man you ought to see her go. Twistin' to the rock and roll. Here you'll find the young and old. Twistin' the night away.
