From the recording Oldies music hits 1
Twist, This oldies track starts with crisp electric guitar chords, upright bass, and a steady snare shuffle. Warm doo-wop harmonies support a smooth lead. The chorus bursts with lively saxophone, while handclaps drive the bridge. The song ends with a classic, tight band fade-out.
Lyrics
**[Intro]**
Hey! 1, 2, 3, 4!
Come on, we want some more!
**[Verse 1]**
Left, right, shake your hips,
Spin around, don’t lose your grip!
Hands up high, yeah, feel the beat,
Move your feet, don’t miss a beat!
**[Chorus]**
We dance the twist, shake our booty low,
Jump around ‘til the morning glow!
Yeah, we never stop, night turns to day,
We party hard ‘til we fade away! (Hey!)
**[Verse 2]**
Belly to belly, turn around,
Feet off the ground—we own the sound!
Sweat on our brows, but we don’t quit,
The music’s hot, and we’re into it!
**[Chorus]**
We dance the twist, shake our booty low,
Jump around ‘til the morning glow!
Yeah, we never stop, night turns to day,
We party hard ‘til we fade away! (Hey!)
**[Bridge]**
Do the robot, then conga line,
Anything goes if you feel fine!
No time to sleep, we’re still alive,
‘Til the DJ yells: "One last time!"
**[Outro]**
We dance the twist… (‘til the sunrise calls!)
Shake our booty… (one more time, y’all!)
Ohhh, yeah!
