    Lyrics:
    Saturday night and the moon is out
    I wanna head on over to the Twist and Shout
    Find a two-step partner and a Cajun beat
    When it lifts me up I'm gonna find my feet
    Out in the middle of a big dance floor
    When I hear that fiddle wanna beg for more
    Gonna dance to a band from a-Lou'sian' tonight
    Well I never have wandered down to New Orleans
    Never have drifted down a bayou stream
    But I heard that music on the radio
    And I swore some day I was gonna go
    Down Highway 10 past Lafayette
    To Baton Rouge and I won't forget
    To send you a card with my regrets
    'Cause I'm never gonna come back home
    Saturday night and the moon is out
    I wanna head on over to the Twist and Shout
    Find a two-step partner and a Cajun beat
    When it lifts me up I'm gonna find my feet
    Out in the middle of a big dance floor
    When I hear that fiddle wanna beg for more
    Gonna dance to a band from a-Lou'sian' tonight
    They got a alligator stew and a crawfish pie
    A golf storm blowin' into town tonight
    Livin on the delta's quite a show
    They got hurricane parties every time it blows
    And here up north it's a cold cold rain
    And there ain't no cure for my blues today
    Except when the paper says: Beausoleil is coming into town
    Baby let's go down
    Saturday night and the moon is out
    I wanna head on over to the Twist and Shout
    Find a two-step partner and a Cajun beat
    When it lifts me up I'm gonna find my feet
    Out in the middle of a big dance floor
    When I hear that fiddle wanna beg for more
    Gonna dance to a band from a-Lou'sian' tonight
    Bring your mama, bring your papa, bring your sister too
    They got lots of music and lots of room
    When they play you a waltz from 1910
    You gonna feel a little bit young again
    Well you learned to dance with your rock'n'roll
    You learned to swing with a do-si-do
    But you learn to love at the fais-so-do
    When you hear a little Jolie Blon
    Saturday night and the moon is out
    I wanna head on over to the Twist and Shout
    Find a two-step partner and a Cajun beat
    When it lifts me up I'm gonna find my feet
    Out in the middle of a big dance floor
    When I hear that fiddle wanna beg for more
    Gonna dance to a band from a-Lou'sian' tonight

      you said it. I was only 1 when this was released but I remember hearing it alot in the early 90s. I mean there's a couple good songs today but pretty much every one on my itunes playlist ranges from the late 70s to 1999, with a couple from maybe 2006-2007. A majority of the songs are from 1990-1994. There's so many singers out there today that I just do not like at all, like Rascal Flatts for example. It's too "pop" now.

      That's because you just can't go wrong with 90's Country. I'm a musician and play in a country band and it's amazing how people only want to talk about the extremely old country or the brand new country but as a musician, the sounds I hear in 90's Country are unmatched and there's virtually no way possible someone can't like it. If you got tired of Country, I can't blame you because I did too (new country) but tune in to 90's Country and maybe some late 80's and you'll hear the best music that ever came out of Nashville.

    It's all connected - and Mary Chapin Carpenter literally leaps into the beating heart of joy, of dance, of celebration. How we need that spirit just now (2021 getting under way). The Bible speaks of a 'weight of glory' - that doesn't mean it's dull or heavy. This is what brought the Cajuns from Canada to the bayous, and what can raise us from the doldrums of CoViD and family feuding to a new day. All y'all spoke truth - let me just say 'amen' to Mike Rayner: 'Well, this was fun!' [Do all y'all from outside the Gulf understand 'hurricane parties'? Love her chuckle at the end....].

    Something about this song. It gets my toes tapping like no other. Hard to believe an Ivy League educated Jersey girl can be so connected to music that by all rights SHOULD be foreign to her. But I swear listening to and watching her I'd swear she was a born in the bayou coonass. I've heard it said that music is music, and any musician can cross genres. I guess Mary Chapin Carpenter proves that point.

      Tom Swinburn I found something very interesting. Now I don't have a hearing problem (just some ringing). So I just made a playlist (TINNITUS RELIEF). If you have any ringing in the ears from listening to loud music over the years - it might help you. But first, set your computer volume at half way (and the volume on the videos at half way). Then listen (with a decent headphone set) through the playlist (I only went about half way through with the 12,000 Hz video) and so far at 40 min. the ringing is just starting to come back (but still lower than before I did this). Note, before I found this channel with these videos, I did go online to a site called online tone generator - and I could hear up to approximately 11,000 Hz. So I thought it best to listen to videos above 11,000 Hz (you may have to listen to other videos though with your test results). Note, the tone generator on that site goes up too fast (so you will have to start / stop it a lot to pinpoint where your hearing ends). And note, I did not listen to music today - before I did this. So I started the playlist at my "ringing baseline." Try it - if needed.

    The Twist and Shout that she talks about in this song was a club in Bethesda, MD, right outside of Washington, DC, that used to regularly have Zydeco bands play there in the 80s and 90s.
    She lived in the Washington, DC area in the 70s and 80s and played clubs there early in her musical career.
