Dear Lady Twist

(Get up from off your chair)
Darling, may I have the pleasure of this next Twist with you?
I don't know how to Twist
You don't know how to Twist?
No
Well, lemme tell ya

Well now, there's a new dance that's known as the Twist
It's really not new but something you've missed
Now, there's a new dance that's known as the Twist
It's really not new, it's something you've missed

Dear lady (Get up from off your chair)
Dear, dear lady (Get up from off your chair)
Well, now, the doctors agree, so I've been told
You do the Twist, and you'll never grow old

Well, one night I happened to go to a dance
Believing I'd find me some romance
And this old lady I happened to see
I said, "Come on, babe, and do the new Twist with me"

Dear lady (Get up from off your chair)
Oh, dear lady (Get up from off your chair)
Well, now, the doctors agree, so I've been told
You do the Twist, and you'll never grow old, yeah, yeah, yeah

Ah, come on, pretty baby
Ah, get up and do the Twist, now
Yeah, yeah, oh yes

Well, I said, "I must've danced from now until dawn"
She said, "Later, baby, I'm almost gone"
I said, "How the rhythm, it's been in the street
And this is no time to slow up your feet"

Dear lady (Get up from your chair)
Oh, dear, dear, dear lady (Get up from your chair)
Well, now, the doctors agree, so I've been told
You do the Twist, and you'll never grow old

You gotta do the Twist, oh yeah
Oh, baby, do the Twist
Ah, get up, come on
And do the twist, now
Oh yeah, come on
