Rivers, Johnny - La Bamba/twist And Shout Lyrics






Para bailar la bamba
Para bailar la bamba
Se necesita una poca de gracia
Una poca de gracia para mi para ti
ya Arriba y arriba
ay arriba y arriba por ti sere
Por ti sere, por ti sere.

Bamba la bamba
Bamba la bamba
Bamba la bamba.

Yo no soy marinero
Yo no soy marinero
Soy capitan, soy capitan, soy capitan.

Bamba la bamba
Bamba la bamba
Bamba la bamba.

Bamba la bamba
Bamba la bamba
Bamba la bamba.

Shake it up baby, twist and shout
Shake it up baby, come on and work it on out
Come on and work it on out honey, you know you look so good
You know you got me going now, just like you knew you would.

Well shake it up baby now, twist and shout
Come on, come on, come on, come on baby now, come on and work it on out
You know you twist little girl, you know you twist so fine
Come on and twist a little closer now, so let me know that you're mine.

Aaaaaah ...

Baby now, twist and shout
Come on, come on, come on, come on baby now, come on and work it on out
You know you twist little girl, you know you twist so fine
Come on and twist a little closer now, so let me know that you're mine.

Well shake it, shake it, shake it baby now
Well shake it, shake it, shake it baby now
Well shake it, shake it, shake it baby now.

Aaaaaah...

  8. G.... L....

    so The Beatles just covered this

    G.... L....

    I think the Isley Brothers did the original Twist and Shout. All the versions of Twist And Shout are lots of fun! I think the Beatles' version is a little better than all the rest because John Lennon absolutely weaponizes the lead vocal. It was one of the best high-energy songs he ever sang.
    But my heart also belongs to the other John---Johnny Rivers. ❤❤❤

  9. n.... b....

    This is one of the first songs I figured out how to play on the guitar. That would have been when I was 16, or 17years old (1973 OR 1974!). Had it on the JOHNNY RIVERS GOLDEN HITS album! Loved it even before I got my first guitar (THANK YOU, GREG COMBS!!!!!!).

  18. D.... Y....

    This album captures the 60's Whiskey A Go Go Era! Early LA roots rock, with a guy who wasn't a great singer or guitarist, but Johnny Rivers found an audience, and threw a pretty good party.

  19. T.... M....

    Wow !!! I used to play this EP at dances years ago, What a rowsing RnR tune it still is. Thanks so much for the upload & the memories. Tom

  20. R.... L....

    La Bamba unkown writter , is the National Anthem of Veracruz, MExico. Andrés Huesca, played it for the first time in 1950 .

    later in 1958 Jhonny Rivers performed it, in the earlier 60´ english version went out as: Twist & Shout. Trini Lopez version was the most famous around 1964 onwards . shocked the world, but Rivers version was also an icon in that era.
