---------------------------------------------------
[Actually in A; capo at the 2nd fret]

C
                      
C

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
    -    
D

Out in the middle of a big dance floor
       
G
                      
G

When I hear that fiddle wanna beg for more
      
D

G

Wanna 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
           
D
                      
G

'Cause I'm never gonna come back home

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
Wanna dance to a band from a-Lou'sian' tonight

They got an alligator stew and a crawfish pie
A
 gulf storm blowing into town tonight
Living on the delta's quite a show
They got hurricane parties every time it blows
But 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 a-coming into town, baby let's go down

It's 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
Wanna dance to a band from a-Lou'sian' tonight

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 a-1910
You're gonna feel a little bit young again
Well you learned to dance with your rock and roll
You learned to swing with a do-si-do
But you learn to love at the fais-do-do
When you hear a little Jolie Blon

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
Wanna dance to a band from a-Lou'sian' tonight
