Nothin' but the Twist Songtext
von Chubby Checker

Hey
Whoa, oh, oh (Whoa, oh, oh)
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Do you want a shotgun? (No)
Do you want a pony? (No)
Do you want a twist? (Yeah)
Whoa, whoa, wait a minute, hold it, hold it, hold it
Hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it
A-one, two, a-one, two, three, four
I want to say how they got a limp, oh
God forbid it, but I′m gonna
Try to pop my head and hold it

There ain't nothin′ (But the twist)
There ain't nothin' (But the ever-lovin′ twist)
Throw away the lisp
There ain′t nothin' but the twist


There′s a lot of danger goin' around these days
(There ain′t nothin', nothin′ but the twist)
Runnin' every city, only you can see
(There ain't nothin′, nothin′ but the twist)
Oh, they just fade away
About the twist is here to stay
(Nothin' but the twist)

No
There ain′t nothin' (But the twist)
There ain′t nothin' (But the ever-lovin′ twist)
You can throw away the lisp
There ain't nothin' but the twist

If you know the song, sing along
Everybody now, come on and
Come on, baby, let′s do the twist
(There ain′t nothin', nothin′ but the twist)
Come on, baby, let's do the twist
(There ain′t nothin', nothin′ but the twist)
Take it over that land and go like this
(Nothin' but the twist)

Hey
There ain't nothin′ (But the twist)
There ain′t nothin' (But the ever-lovin′ twist)
Yeah, there ain't no twistin′ like a slow, slow twistin' twist
Ah, let′s twist, hey, hey


Hey, hey, ho, ho, ho, ho
Hey, ho, ho, ho, ho
Ahh, let's twist again like we did last summer
Let's twist again, twist the night and day
Come on

Let′s twist again now like we did last year
(Ain′t nothin', nothin′ but the twist)
Nothing but a winner, it's a long way here
(There ain′t nothin', nothin′ but the twist)
I got a way to shake and pick
I know the twist is to the kick
(Nothin' but the twist)

Whoa
There ain't nothin′ (But the twist)
There ain′t nothin' (But the ever-lovin′ twist)
There is no way to view
Ooh, there ain't nothin′ but the twist
(One more time)
There ain't nothin′ (But the twist)
There ain't nothin' (But the ever-lovin′ twist)
There is no way to view
Ooh, there ain′t nothin' but the twist

Everybody
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
Are ya ready? (Yeah)
