Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
[Chorus]
Turn the beat around
Love to hear the percussion
Turn it upside down
Love to hear the percussion
Love to hear it
Blow horns you sure sound pretty
Your violins keep me movin' to the nitty gritty
When you hear the scratch of the guitars scratchin'
Then you'll know that rhythm carries all the action, so
Woah yeah
[Chorus]
Turn the beat around
Love to hear the percussion
Turn it upside down
Love to hear the percussion
Love to hear it
[Chorus]
Turn the beat around
Love to hear the percussion
Turn it upside down
Love to hear it
Flute player play your flute cause
I know that you want to get your thing off
But you see I've made up my mind about it
Its got to be rhythm, no doubt about it, woah woah
Cause when the guitar player start playing
With the syncopated rhythm, with the scratch scratch scratch
Makes me want to move my body yeah yeah yeah
And when the drummer starts beating that beat
With the rat, tat, tat, tat, tat, tat, on the drums hey
Turn the beat around
Love to hear the percussion
Turn it upside down
Love to hear it
Love to hear it
Love to hear it
Love to hear it
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
[Chorus]
Turn the beat around
Love to hear the percussion
Turn it upside down
Love to hear it
