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, puttin' trouble on the run   Oh man you'll find the old and young 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      Feel much better      Here's a fellow in blue jeans, who's dancing with an older queen   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 the old twistin' the night away      They're twistin', twistin', everybody's doing great   They're twistin' man, twistin', they're twistin' the night away   Twistin', you know they're twistin', twistin' the night away    They're twistin', twistin', man twistin' the night away      Here they have a lot of fun, puttin' trouble on the run   Oh man you'll find young and the old twistin' the night away   Here's a man in evening clothes, how he got here I don't know   I don't know but man you ought to see him go   Twistin' the night away
