Come on baby let's do the twist
Come on baby let's do the twist
Take me by my little hand and go like this
Ee-oh twist baby baby twist
Oooh-yeah just like this
Come on little miss and do the twist

My daddy is sleepin' and mama ain't around
Yeah daddy just sleepin' and mama ain't around
We're gonna twisty twisty twisty
'Til we turn the house down
Come on and twist yeah baby twist
Oooh-yeah just like this
Come on little miss and do the twist

Yeah you should see my little Sis
You should see my my little Sis
She really knows how to rock
She knows how to twist
Come on and twist yeah baby twist
Oooh-yeah just like this
Come on little miss and do the twist
Yeah rock on now
Yeah twist on now
Twist.

Born in Philadelphia in 1941, Ernest Evans would later become Chubby Checker and make Rock and Roll history. With the help of Dick Clark and a record deal with Cameo-Parkway, Chubby Checker began his professional career. After recording four songs on Cameo-Parkway that barely dented the top forty, a “twist” of fate had Chubby singing “The Twist” for American Bandstand as a stand-in act for a no-show. “The Twist” hit the pop charts in the summer of 1960 and went to number one.

Following the huge success of “The Twist,” Chubby Checker recorded several other top ten hits including “Pony Time,” “Let’s Twist Again,” and “The Fly.”
