Down At The Twist And Shout (Live - Super Bowl XXXI)

(mary-chapin carpenter)

Chorus：

Saturday night and the moon is out

I wanna head on over to the twist and shout

Find a two-step partner and a cajun beat

When it lifts me up i'm gonna find my feet

Out in the middle of a big dance floor

When i hear that fiddle wanna beg for more

Gonna dance to a band from a-lou'sian' tonight

Well i never have wandered down to new orleans

Never have drifted down a bayou stream

But i heard that music on the radio

And i swore some day i was gonna go

Down highway 10 past lafayette

To baton rouge and i won't forget

To send you a card with my regrets

'cause i'm never gonna come back home

(repeat chorus)

They got a alligator stew and a crawfish pie

A golf storm blowin' into town tonight

Livin on the delta's quite a show

They got hurricane parties every time it blows

And here up north it's a cold cold rain

And there ain't no cure for my blues today

Except when the paper says: beausoleil is coming into town

Baby let's go down

(repeat chorus)

Bring your mama, bring your papa, bring your sister too

They got lots of music and lots of room

When they play you a waltz from 1910

You gonna feel a little bit young again

Well you learned to dance with your rock'n'roll

You learned to swing with a do-si-do

But you learn to love at the fais-so-do

When you hear a little jolie blon

(repeat chorus)
