Twistin And Groovin

E
I got a call from my baby, said she fed up with me
            A                                E
Said she's found another lover in another city
            B7       A             E
Said she's doing fine in New Orleans

E
Now she got me pacing, huh, wondering where'd I go wrong
        A                                   E
Got me going in circles like the merry-go-round
       B7                A                     E
Gonna take the west train to Louisiana in the morning

E
Sweet little girl from the ninth ward of New Orleans
The way she dancing, you could see her from Tennessee
A                                                   E
Up under that red dress are legs long as the bayou trees
           B7              A                                E   B7
She got a golden smile, I know she's the one for me in the room

         E                       A
She's a-twistin' and a-groovin', shakin' and a-movin'
E                            A
She don't know what she doin' to me, I
E                                 A
Love the way that you dance, and honey, I've got a question:
F#                     B7
Baby, would you be my queen?
E
All right now

E
Her name was Eartha was her name, I could never forget
Just like the way she dipped on the bronze-tiled floor
A
Honey was movin' with ease, each and every step
E
So good that baby had my eyes at her glow
          B7                  A
No shiny jewelry, still the brightest thing illuminatin' the room

             E                       A
That girl is twistin' and a-groovin', shakin' and a-movin'
E                            A
She don't know what she doin' to me, I
E                                 A
Love the way that you dance, and honey, I've got a question:
F#                     B7

E
Ooh, ooh, baby
Ooh, ooh, baby
A
Ooh, ooh, baby
E
Ohh, ooh, baby
                     B7               A                                 E
Ooh, that baby got a golden smile, I know she's the one for me in that room

             E                       A
That girl is twistin' and a-groovin', shakin' and a-movin'
E                            A
