Down At The Twist And Shout by Mary Chapin Carpenter


Saturday night and the moon is out

I wanna head on over to the twist and shout

Find a two-step partner and a cajun beat

When it lifts me up i'm gonna find my feet

Out in the middle of a big dance floor

When i hear that fiddle wanna beg for more

Gonna dance to a band from a-lou'sian' tonight

 

Well i never have wandered down to new orleans

Never have drifted down a bayou stream

But i heard that music on the radio

And i swore some day i was gonna go

Down highway 10 past lafayette

To baton rouge and i won't forget

To send you a card with my regrets

'cause i'm never gonna come back home

 

Saturday night and the moon is out

I wanna head on over to the twist and shout

Find a two-step partner and a cajun beat

When it lifts me up i'm gonna find my feet

Out in the middle of a big dance floor

When i hear that fiddle wanna beg for more

Gonna dance to a band from a-lou'sian' tonight

They got a alligator stew and a crawfish pie

A golf storm blowin' into town tonight

Livin on the delta's quite a show

They got hurricane parties every time it blows

And here up north it's a cold cold rain

And there ain't no cure for my blues today

Except when the paper says: beausoleil is coming into town

Baby let's go down

 

Saturday night and the moon is out

I wanna head on over to the twist and shout

Find a two-step partner and a cajun beat

When it lifts me up i'm gonna find my feet

Out in the middle of a big dance floor

When i hear that fiddle wanna beg for more

Gonna dance to a band from a-lou'sian' tonight

 

Bring your mama bring your papa bring your sister too

They got lots of music and lots of room

When they play you a waltz from 1910

You gonna feel a little bit young again

Well you learned to dance with your rock'n'roll

You learned to swing with a do-si-do

But you learn to love at the fais-so-do

When you hear a little jolie blon

 

Saturday night and the moon is out

I wanna head on over to the twist and shout

Find a two-step partner and a cajun beat

When it lifts me up i'm gonna find my feet

Out in the middle of a big dance floor

When i hear that fiddle wanna beg for more

Gonna dance to a band from a-lou'sian' tonight
