Joe fell in love with a campus queen.
He dreamed of her night and day.
She had a crush on a record machine.
And when he tried to kiss her, she'd say,
drop the joke.
Drop the night, give me a few pops, Joe.
Drop the joke.
Drop the night, give me a few pops, Joe.
Come on and play this tune for me so I can twist all night.
He bought her a big box of caramel and a dozen posies too.
But when he passed the soda shop,
he heard her yell,
hey Joe,
I've been looking for you.
Drop the joke.
Drop the night,
give me a few pops,
Joe. Drop the joke.
Drop the night,
give me a few pops,
Joe. Come on and play this tune for me so I can twist all night.
The poor guy was caught in the middle.
It made him feel mighty low.
Cause he was dancing and fiddling to a high-fi stereo.
Joe wouldn't quit and he finally won.
At least that's the way it seemed.
He married the chick and it really was fun too.
She made him buy a record machine.
Drop the joke.
Drop the night,
give me a few pops,
Joe. Drop the joke.
Drop the night,
give me a few pops, Joe.
Come on and play this tune for me so I can twist all night.
Come on Joe,
drop it, drop it.
Joe wouldn't quit and he finally won.
At least that's the way it seemed.
He married the chick and it really was fun too.
She made him buy a record machine.
Drop the joke.
Drop the night,
give me a few pops,
Joe. Drop the joke.
Drop the night, give me a few pops, Joe.
Come on and play this tune for me so I can dance all night.
You wanna dance all night?
So I can twist all night.
You wanna twist all night?
So I can hear a song.
