Laura Branigan - Turn The Beat Around lyrics

rate me

(Gerald Jackson/Peter Jackson)

Blow horns you sure sound pretty!

Your violins keep moving to the nitty gritty

But when you hear the scratch of the guitars scratchin'

Then you know that rhythm carries all the action

Turn the beat around

Love to hear percussion

Turn it upside down

Love to hear percussion

Love to hear it

Flute player, play your flute, cause

I know you want to get your thing off

But you see, I made up my mind about

It's got to be the rhythm, no doubt about it

wo oo oh

And when the guitar player starts playing that syncopated rhythm

With the scratch, scratch, scratch

Makes you want to move your body, yeah yeah yeah!

And when the drummer starts beatin' that beat

Beatin' out that beat with the syncopated rhythm

With the rat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat on a drum

Turn the beat around

Love to hear percussion

Turn it upside down

Love to hear percussion

Love to hear it
