Twistin' & Groovin'

I got a call from my baby

Said she fed up with me

Said she's found another lover in another city

Said she's doin' fine in New Orleans

Now she got me pacin' (Huh)

Wonderin' where'd I go wrong

Got me goin' in circles like the Merry-go-Round

Gonna take the west train to Louisiana in the mornin'

Sweet little girl from the Ninth Ward o' New Orleans

The way she dancin', you could see her from Tennessee

Up under that red dress

Are legs long as the bayou trees

She got a golden smile

I know she's the one for me in the room

She's a-twistin' and a-groovin'

Shakin' and a-movin'

She don't know what she doin'

To me, I

Love the way that you dance, and honey I've got a question

"Baby, would you be my queen?"

(Alright now)

Her name was Eartha was her name, I could never forget

Just like the way she dipped on the bronze tiled floor

Honey was movin' with ease, each and every step

So good that baby had my eyes at her glow

No shiny jewelry

Still the brightest thing illuminatin' the room

That girl is twistin' and a-groovin'

Shakin' and a-movin'

She don't know what she doin'

To me, I

Love the way that you dance, and honey I've got a question

"Baby, would you be my queen?"

Whoo, whoo, baby

Whoo, whoo, baby

Whoo, whoo, baby

Ooh, that baby got a golden smile

I know she's the one for me in that room

That girl is twistin' and a-groovin'

Shakin' and a-movin'

She don't know what she doin'

To me, I

Love the way that you dance, and honey I've got a question

"Baby, would you be my queen?"

Whoo, whoo, baby

Whoo, whoo, baby

Whoo, whoo, baby

Mmm, that baby got a golden smile

I know she's the one for me in that room
