In a little shanty town
was a night like this
girls were sitting down
around the town
like this
some were young
and some were brown
I even found
a miss
who was black and brown
and really did
the twist
watch her move her wrist
and feel your belly twist
feel the hunger thunder
when her hip bones twist
try to hold her, keep her under
while the juke box hiss
twist the music out of hunger
on a night like this.
