Mary Chapin Carpenter — Down at the Twist and Shout
DOWN AT THE TWIST AND SHOUT (Mary-Chapin Carpenter)
---------------------------------------------------
(Actually in A; capo at the 2nd fret)
CC
Saturday night and the moon is out
GG
I wanna head on over to the Twist and Shout
DD
Find a two-step partner and a Cajun beat
GG
When it lifts me up I'm gonna find my feet
CC
Out in the middle of a big dance floor
GG
When I hear that fiddle wanna beg for more
DDG
Gonna dance to a band from a-Lou'sian' tonight
DD
Well I never have wandered down to New Orleans
GG
Never have drifted down a bayou stream
DD
But I heard that music on the radio
GG
And I swore some day I was gonna go
EmEm
Down Highway 10 past Lafayette
A7A7
To Baton Rouge and I won't forget
DD
To send you a card with my regrets
D7G
'Cause I'm never gonna come back home
(You know the rest...)
