THE BLUEGRASS TWIST
By Elroy “Pudgy” Parcheezy
(Tune: reminiscent of the better-known but
somewhat later song, “ THE TWIST” by Chubby Checker)

1) Run and get your fiddle, don’t forget your bow,
And I’ll break out, my old ban – jo
And to play Do – bro, we can get your Uncle Moe.

Yonder comes little Maggie, let’s have some fun
Just like we use-ter, back in nineteen sixty-one.
It goes like this; it’s called the Bluegrass Twist.

Chorus:

Round and round the whole dang town we twist and then,
From the hog lot to the barn we twist again
Mama look at Sis, do the Bluegrass Twist.

2) The Bluegrass Twist, it’s so easy to do,
Like when you step in sump’n, and it sticks to your shoe.
Now you got the gist, do the Bluegrass Twist.

Yonder comes Pretty Polly, see her jumpin’ on the log,
She hails from Foggy Mountain, where they have a lot of fog.
With her boyfriend little Willy, watch ‘em twist the clog.

Chorus

3) Come on little Annie, don’t wait for spring,
And poor little Ellen, get up off the ground and swing.
If you want to get kissed, try the Bluegrass Twist.

Oh where you been a twistin’ I been twistin all around,
Did the twist with darlin’ Corey, did the twist with Jimmy Brown.
I really must insist, you do the Bluegrass Twist.

Chorus

4) I was caught drunk drivin’; the trooper put me on his list.
I was out there a jivin’, but I got the case dismissed.
When he said to walk the chalk line, I did the Bluegrass Twist.

It was late last night, when we all reminisced
‘Bout things in life, that we most miss.
At the top of the list, was the Bluegrass Twist

Chorus:
Round and round the whole dang town we twist and then,
From the hog lot to the barn we twist again
Mama look at Sis, do the Bluegrass Twist. (2)
