Twist and Should – Lyrics

Well, shake it up, baby, now (Shake it up, baby)
Twist and shout (Twist and shout)
Come on, come on, come on, come on, baby now (Come on, baby)
Come on and work it on out (Work it on out)

Well, work it on out, honey (Work it on out)
You know, you look so good (Look so good)
You know, you got me goin’ now (Got me goin’)
Just like I knew you would (Like I knew you would)

Well, shake it up, baby, now (Shake it up, baby)
Twist and shout (Twist and shout)
Come on, come on, come on, come on, baby, now (Come on, baby)
Come on and work it on out (Work it on out)

You know you twist you, little girl (Twist, little girl)
You know you twist so fine (Twist so fine)
Come on and twist a little closer now (Twist a little closer)
And let me know that you’re mine (Let me know you’re mine)

Yeah, shake it up, baby, now (Shake it up, baby)
Twist and shout (Twist and shout)
Come on, come on, come on, come on, baby, now (Come on, baby)
Come on and work it on out (Work it on out)

You know you twist you, little girl (Twist, little girl)
You know you twist so fine (Twist so fine)
Come on and twist a little closer now (Twist a little closer)
And let me know that you’re mine (Let me know you’re mine)

Well, shake it, shake it, shake it, baby, now (Shake it up, baby)
