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 
Out in the middle of a big dance floor 
       G                      G 
When I hear that fiddle wanna beg for more 
      D                      D                 G   G 
Gonna 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  
           D7                    G 
'Cause I'm never gonna come back home 
 
{You know the rest...}
