Saturday night and the moon is out
I wanna head on over to the twist and shop
Find a two-step art for an occasion beat
Lifts me up, I'm gonna find my feet
Howling in the middle of a big dance floor
When I hear that fiddle, wanna bake for more
Gonna dance to a band from Louisiana tonight
Well, I never have wandered down New Orleans
Never have drifted down by your street
Heard that music on the radio
And I swore someday 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
Saturday night and the moon is out
I wanna head on over to the twist and shop
Find a two-step art for an occasion beat
When it lifts me up, I'm gonna find my feet
Howling in the middle of a big dance floor
When I hear that fiddle, wanna bake for more
Gonna dance to a band from Louisiana tonight
We've got alligator stew and a crawfish pie
A gold storm blowing into town tonight
Living on the Delta's quite a show
They've got hurricane buddies
They've got hurricane buddies
Every time you close
And here up north, it's cold, cold rain
There ain't a care for my blues today
Except when the paper says this oil
Is coming into town, baby, let's go down
Saturday night and the moon is out
I wanna head on over to the twist and shop
Find a two-step art for an occasion beat
When it lifts me up, I'm gonna find my feet
Howling in the middle of a big dance floor
When I hear that fiddle, wanna bake for more
Gonna dance to a band from Louisiana tonight
Bring your mother
Bring your papa
Bring your sister too
Snag it and lots of music and lots of room
When they play you a waltz from 1910
You're gonna feel a little bit young again
When you learn to dance with a rock and roll
You learn to swim with a do-si-do
Meet you and your little queen
When you learn to love with a face so blue
When you're a little jolly bloot
When you're a little Ant-Man

Saturday night and the moon is out
Wanna head on over to the twist and shout
Gonna twist and partner on occasion beat
When it lifts me up I'm gonna find my feet
Out in the middle of the big dance floor
When I hear that feel, wanna beg for more
Wanna dance to a band from Louisiana tonight
Saturday night and the moon is out
Wanna head on over to the twist and shout
Gonna twist and partner on occasion beat
When it lifts me up I'm gonna find my feet
Out in the middle of the big dance floor
When I hear that feel, wanna beg for more
Gonna dance to a band from Louisiana tonight
