"Dear Lady Twist" by Gary U.S. Bonds

Get up, up from your chair
Get up, up from your chair

Darling, may I have the pleasure of having this next twist
with you?
I dont know how to twist!
You dont know how to twist?
No!
Well let me tell you

Well now theres a new dance thats known as the twist
Its really not new, its something youve missed
But theres a new dance thats known as the twist
Its really not new, its something youve missed

Dear lady -- get up, up from your chair dear, dear lady
Well some doctors agree, so Ive been told Do the twist and
youll never grow old

Well one night I happened on a go-go dance
Believing Id find me some romance
And this lil lady, I happened to see
I said, come over baby and do the twist with me

Dear lady oh, dear lady Oh well now some doctors agree, so
Ive been told Do the twist and
youll never grow old

Get up, up from your chair
Get up, up from your chair

Well I said, Id love to dance from now until dawn
She said, Thank ya, baby, but Im almost done gone
I said, Now the rhythm is getting real sweet
This is no time to slow up your feet

Dear lady -- get up, up from your chair -- dear, dear lady
Well now some doctors agree, so Ive been told Do the twist
and youll never grow old

Ya gotta do the twist
