Sam Cooke Quotes

Let me tell you 'bout a place a omewhere 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.
