|
Turn the beat around.
|
Love to hear percussion.
|
Turn it upside down.
|
Love to hear percussion.
|
Love to hear it.
|
|
Blow horns, you sure sound pretty!
|
Your bottom lips keep moving to the nitty gritty.
|
But when you hear the scratch of the guitars scratching.
|
Then you know that rhythm carries all the action.
|
|
Turn the beat around.
|
Love to hear percussion.
|
(Move your feet when you feel the beat!)
|
Turn it upside down.
|
Love to hear percussion.
|
Love to hear it.
|
|
Flute player, play your flute, cause
|
I know that you want to get jumping.
|
But you see, I've made up my mind about
|
It's got to be the rhythm, no doubt about it.
|
Cause when the guitar player starts 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,
|
Beating the outside 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.
