I'm not a fashion and I ain't no swell But how can you hold me when you're twistin' over there Now let's try a waltzin' rhythm beat So you can hold me in your arms and kiss my cheek Now ain't that better baby ain't that better baby Than twistin' way over there
I was doin' the cha-cha-cha and the shimmy too And all the time I wasn't even close to you And now let's try a waltzin' rhythm beat So that I can whisper that I love you from your head to your feet Now ain't that better baby ain't that better baby Than twistin' way over there
Yeah mama and papa had a big evenin' out When they were waltzin' around and about Papa never let her out of his sight He kept his two arms wrapped around her tight
Stay in my arms until this dance is through Pay no attention to the kids that look at you And then let's try a waltzin' rhythm beat It's by for the coolest way for loves to meet Now ain't that better baby ain't that better baby Than twistin' way over there [ sax ] Yeah mama and papa had a big evenin' out... Stay in my arms until this dance is through...
Now ain't that better baby ain't that better baby Than twistin' way over there Now ain't that better baby ain't that better baby
