Saturday night and the moon is out
G G
I wanna head on over to the Twist and Shout
D D
Find a two-step partner and a Cajun beat
G G
When it lifts me up I'm gonna find my feet
C C
Out in the middle of a big dance floor
G G
When I hear that fiddle wanna beg for more
D D G G
Gonna dance to a band from a-Lou'sian' tonight
D D
Well I never have wandered down to New Orleans
G G
Never have drifted down a bayou stream
D D
But I heard that music on the radio
G G
And I swore some day I was gonna go
Em Em
Down Highway 10 past Lafayette
A7 A7
To Baton Rouge and I won't forget
D D
To send you a card with my regrets
D7 G
'Cause I'm never gonna come back home
{You know the rest...}
