You Know You Got Me Going Now, Just Like You Knew You Would
I've decided that I want to start doing a Beatles song of the day. To start us out, today's song is "Twist and Shout".
Well shake it up baby now
(shake it up baby)
Twist and shout
(Twist and Shout)
Come on, come on, come on, come on baby now
(Come on baby)
Come on and work it on out
(Work it on out)
Well work it on out honey
(Work it on out)
You know you look so good
(Look so good)
You know you got me going now
(Got me going)
Just like I knew you would
(Like I knew you would oooh!)
Well shake it up baby now
(Shake it up baby)
Twist and shout
(Twist and Shout)
Come on, come on, come on, come on baby now
(Come on baby)
Come on and work it all out
(Work it all out ooh!)
You know you're a twisty little girl
(Twist little girl)
You know you twist so fine
(Twist so fine)
Come on and twist a little closer now
(Twist a little closer)
And let me know that you're mine
(Let me know your mine ooh!)
Ahhhhhhhhhh, Ahhhhhhhhhh,
Ahhhhhhhhhh, Ahhhhhhhhhhh,
Ahhhhh, Ahhhhh, Woah, Yeah
Well shake it up baby now
(Shake it up baby)
Twist and shout
(Twist and Shout)
Come on, come on, come on, come on baby now
(Come on baby)
Come on and work it on out
(Work it on out oooh!)
You know you're a twisty little girl
(Twist little girl)
You know you twist so fine
(Twist so fine)
Come on and twist a little closer now
(Twist a little closer)
And let me know that you're mine
(Let me know your mine oooh!)
Well, shake it, shake it, shake it, baby, now
(shake it up baby)
Well, shake it, shake it, shake it, baby, now
(shake it up baby)
Well, shake it, shake it, shake it, baby, now
(shake it up baby)
Ahhhhhhhhhh
Ahhhhhhhhhh
Ahhhhhhhhhh
Ah!
Originally by the Isley Brothers, the Beatles version can be found on the album "Please Please Me". John Lennon, having barely any voice left after a full day of recording, belts it out and just shreds his vocal chords to the point where you can hear him gagging at the end of the song.
It was famously used in the movie "Ferris Buehler's Day Off" in the scene where Ferris commandeers a parade float.
This track is one of those rare cases where the cover actually surpasses the original in all facets.
