Sam Cooke - Twisting The Night Away (lyrics)
Let me tell you 'bout a place Somewhere up-a New-York way Where the people are so gay Twistin' the night away Here they have a lot of fun Puttin' trouble on the run Man, you find the old and young Twistin' the night away They're twistin', twistin', everybody's feelin' great They're twistin', twistin', they're twistin' the night away Here's a man in evenin' clothes How he got here, I don't know, but Man, you oughta see him go Twistin' the night away-ay He's dancin' with the chick in slacks She's a-movin' up and back Oh man, there ain't nothin' like Twistin' the night away They're twistin', twistin', everybody's feelin' great They're twistin', twistin', they're twistin' the night away Let's twist a while! Lean up, lean back Lean up, lean back Watusi, now fly, now twist They're twistin' the night away Here's a fella in bluejeans Dancin' with a older Queen Who's dolled up in-a diamond rings and Twistin' the night away-ay Man, you oughta see her go Twistin' to the rock and roll Here you find the young and old Twistin' the night away They're twistin', twistin', man, everybody's feelin' great They're twistin', twistin', they're twistin' the night away One more time! Lean up, lean back Lean up, lean back Watusi, now fly, now twist They're twistin' the night away

Sam Cooke - Twisting the Night Away & The Riddle Song (The Jerry Lewis Show - Dec. 7, 1963)
When Jack Paar left The Tonight Show in March 1962, guest hosts filled in. Carson could not immediately host due to contractual difficulties. One such guest host was Jerry Lewis. Guest hosts usually hosted for one week; Lewis hosted for two. Many considered him a natural. After The Tonight Show hosting duties, ABC offered Jerry Lewis a two-hour comedy variety television series, presumably designed to compete against Johnny Carson. ABC invested heavily they presented Lewis with a multi-million dollar contract (supposedly $45M) and renamed the El Capitan Theater The Jerry Lewis Theater. ABC expected Lewis to make history. Advance word predicted this series was abysmal. Before the program debut, a protester stood outside ABC-TV and displayed a sign: Ban the bomb before it goes off! The premiere episode aired September 21, 1963. It is considered an unparalleled train wreck. Jerry Lewis first words to the viewing audience of the second episode were, Well, I guess you heard what happened to the show! The series was canceled almost immediately after the program debut; however, episodes continued until December 21, 1963. The program was expected to run five years. It lasted thirteen weeks. This excerpt is from the eleventh episode, aired December 7, 1963. It features Sam Cooke singing Twisting the Night Away and The Riddle Song.
