Ain't That Better, Baby?
I'm not a fashion and I ain't no swell
But how can you hold me when you're twistin' over there
Now let's try a waltzin' rhythm beat
So you can hold me in your arms and kiss my cheek
Now ain't that better baby ain't that better baby
Than twistin' way over there.
I was doin' the cha-cha-cha and the shimmy too
And all the time I wasn't even close to you
And now let's try a waltzin' rhythm beat
So that I can whisper that I love you from your head to your feet
Now ain't that better baby ain't that better baby
Than twistin' way over there.
Yeah mama and papa had a big evenin' out
When they were waltzin' around and about
Papa never let her out of his sight
He kept his two arms wrapped around her tight.
Stay in my arms until this dance is through
Pay no attention to the kids that look at you
And then let's try a waltzin' rhythm beat
It's by for the coolest way for loves to meet
Now ain't that better baby ain't that better baby
Than twistin' way over there.

Now ain't that better baby ain't that better baby
Than twistin' way over there.
Now ain't that better baby, ain't that better baby
Than twistin' way over there
Now ain't that better baby, ain't that better baby
Than twistin' way over there?...
But how can you hold me when you're twistin' over there
Now let's try a waltzin' rhythm beat
So you can hold me in your arms and kiss my cheek
Now ain't that better baby ain't that better baby
Than twistin' way over there.

Now ain't that better baby, ain't that better baby
Than twistin' way over there?...
