Featuring Chubby Checker
Hee hee hee hee
Twist
Ahh, we're back
Come on, baby
Let's do the twist
Come on, baby
Let's do the twist
Take me by my little hand
And go like this
The party was packed
I'm talking back to back
There was a rapper that was rapping
To a beat that was wack
They was going through the motions
Out on the dance floor
And when the rapper was done
They wasn't yelling encore
The people were tired
Of the same old groove
They wanted something def
Something new and improved
Something easy to do
But hard to resist
I got something for y'all
What do you call it the twist
Come on, baby
Let's do the twist
Chubby Checker
And The Fat Boys
We're doing the twist
Take us by our little hand
And go like this
We, we, we broke into the booth
And the record stacks
Came up with the twist
And we were scratching the track
People started jamming hard
To the funky sound
Did the twist down and up
Then up and down
Then I heard somebody yell
Yo, Chubby's here
The people took a little pause
Just to stop and stare
He said, I'll show you people
How to twist with style
Cause I've been doing the twist
For a long, long while
Oh, you should see
Prince Markie Dee
Check out that Kool Rock
He's rocking like me
Here comes B-Beat Box
Come on, do it, Buffy
Come on, baby
Come, come, come
Come, come on, baby
Do, do, do, do the twist
Do, do, do, do the twist
Come on, baby
Let's do the twist
Chub and the Fat Boys
We're doing the twist
Take the world by the hand
And do the twist
Chubby took my sister
Down to the dance floor
Did the twist so def
The crowd yelled for more
So I Ponyed with my mother
Did the Fly with my goil
And when Buff did the Limbo
We was rocking the world
Come on, baby
Let's do the twist
Chubby Checkers
And the Fat Boys
We're doing the twist
Take the world by the hand
And go like this
Hey, the West coast
And on the East coast
And in the South
And in the North
And all over the world
What time is it?
Come on, baby
(Twist to the left
Twist to the right)
Let's do the twist
(Twist up and down
Twist all night)
Chubby Checker
(Come on, come on)
And the Fat Boys
(Come on, come on
Come on, come on)
We're doing the twist
(Come on, come on, come on)
Take us by our little hands
And go like this
Oh, yeah, and do the twist
Yeah, just like me
Ooh, yeah, and do the twist
Oh, yeah
