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) |

Saturday night and the moon is out | |
I wanna head on over to the twist and shout | |
Find a twostep 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 alou' 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 | |

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 dosido | |
But you learn to love at the faissodo | |
When you hear a little jolie blon | |
