Hank Ballard & the Midnighters

Hank Ballard (born John Henry Kendricks; November 18, 1927 – March 2, 2003) was an American singer and songwriter, the lead vocalist of The Midnighters and one of the first rock and roll artists to emerge in the early 1950s. He played an integral part in the development of the genre, releasing the hit singles "Work With Me, Annie" and answer songs "Annie Had a Baby" and "Annie's Aunt Fannie" with his Midnighters. He later wrote and originally recorded (in 1959) "The Twist" which was notably covered a year later by Chubby Checker, this second version spreading the popularity of the dance. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990. more »

Everybody is twisting now
Everybody is learning how
Put on a tight dress
We're on our way
We'll twist til
The break of day

(CHORUS)
Let's twist (let's twist)
Oh, baby, let's twist (let's twist)
If you resist, look what you miss

Baby, if it's late at night
Or if the sun is shinging bright
The twist is the thing to do
It's good for me and you

(CHORUS)

Do you know how to twist
If you don't, I'll show you how
Log on to Top40db.
Do you know how to twist
If you don't, you're out of style

The gang is on the move
They're in a twisting groove
Now that you've got the news
Put on your twisting shoes

Let's twist (let's twist)
Oh, baby, let's twist (let's twist)
If you resist, see what you miss

Do you know how to twist
If you don't, I'll show you how
One more time now
Do you know how to twist
If you don't, you're out of style

thank you
