Found someone new
To do the things I used to do for you.
Just call my name,
I'm not ashamed,
I'll come running back to you.Can't sleep at night,
I can't eat a bite.
When you were mine I didn't treat you right.
Just call my name,
I know, I know I'm not ashamed.
I'll come running back to you.”

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.

Twistin' the night away.They're twistin', twistin'
Everybody's feelin' great.
They're twistin', twistin'
They're twistin' the night away.”

“All day long they work so hard
Till the sun is goin' down.
Working on the highways and byways
And wearing, wearing a frown.
You hear them moanin' their lives away.

That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang."”

What a wonderful world this would be.”
