Píseň: Twistin' in the Kitchen

Interpret:
Sam Cooke
Album:
Twistin' The Night Away
it seemed to me that I heard music
 coming through the kitchen door
 So I peeped in, saw my Dinah with a fellow
 that I've never seen before


 and he was twistin in the kitchen with my Dinah
 twistin in the kitchen, I know
 twistin in the kitchen with my Dinah
 to the music of an old banjo


 and singing
 Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O, Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O,
 Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O, Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O,
 singing
 Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O, Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O,
 Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O, Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O,


 And going around and around and around
 around and around and around and around


 Should have been my with My Dinah
 Should have been me, I know
 Should have been me, twistin in the kitchen
 to the music of an old banjo


 I saw him twistin in the kitchen with my Dinah
 twistin in the kitchen, I know
 he was twistin in the kitchen with my Dinah
 to the music of an old banjo


 and singing
 Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O, Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O,
 Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O, Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O,
 singing
 Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O, Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O,
 Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O, Fi-Fai-Fideli-I-O,


 And going around and around and around
 around and around and around and around
