You know, I was walkin' down the street here the other day
I saw a friend of mine
He said, hey Jerry, what you doing, boy
I said aw you know, been twistin' around here and there

Ooh, feels so good
Been twistin', I been twistin', till the break of day

I bet the old folks missed it and the children too
But there ain't nobody twistin' like me and you
We've been twistin, twistin', till the break of day

I said, did you know somethin', boy
I was layin' in my bed the other night
And I heard mama and papa a talkin'
I heard mama tell papa
You know papa, he just slipped right back over and he told mama
About something he heard, and mama told papa, don't you believe a word
I been twistin, twistin' till the break of day

Yeah, all right twistin'
Uh-uh

Then me and that friend of mine, we just mosied on down the street a little bit further, you know, still talkin' gypsy
Said, tell me something, Jerry, what else has happened man?
I said whoo, I feel so good
I been twistin, been twistin', till the break of day
And the old folks missed it and tell it true
There ain't nobody twistin' like me and you
Twistin' till the break of day

Everybody's twistin', everybody's twistin'
Mama's twistin' too, mama's papa's twistin' too
And the childrens twistin', and the babies twistin'
Got the whole house twistin'
Ooh, I don't know where they gonna be twistin' next...
