Full lyrics
A nova dança agora é o Twist
É Twist aqui, Twist lá
Eu quero uma garota assanhadinha, com a "carça" apertadinha
Para o Twist dançar
Ê, Twist, sai daqui! Ê, Twist, sai pra lá!
Ê, Twist, sai daqui! Ê, Twist, vai pra lá!
Twist, outra americanada,
Zuada de guitarra e violão.
Twist, dança tão rebolativa / Se a gente não for viva,
Fica com a "carça" na mão
Ê, Twist, sai daqui! Ê, Twist, vai pra lá!
Ê, Twist, sai daqui! Ê, Twist, vai pra lá!
Twist, dança, que moço bonito
Fica todo esquisito no salão a rebolar
Twist com as "perna" de Chiquinha, ficaram tudo fininha de tanto ela twistar
Translation
The new dance now is the Twist
It's Twist here, Twist there
I want a frisky girl, with her pants tight
To dance the Twist
Hey, Twist, get out of here! Hey, Twist, go over there!
Hey, Twist, get out of here! Hey, Twist, go over there!
Twist, another American fad,
Noise of guitar and acoustic guitar.
Twist, such a hip-swaying dance / If we're not lively,
We'll end up with our pants in our hands
Hey, Twist, get out of here! Hey, Twist, go over there!
Hey, Twist, get out of here! Hey, Twist, go over there!
Twist, a dance where a handsome young man
Looks all awkward on the dance floor swaying his hips
Twist with Chiquinha's legs, they all got very thin from her twisting so much
