Turn The Beat Around
Gloria Estefan
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
(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 violins keep movin' to the nitty-gritty
When you hear the scratch of the guitars scratchin'
Oh, then you know that rhythm carries all the action (action), whoa, yeah
(Turn the beat around) turn it around, yeah
(Love to hear percussion) my, my, my, my, my
(Turn it upside down) turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
(Love to hear percussion) yeah
(Love to hear it) gotta hear it
(Turn the beat around) 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round, 'round, yeah
(Love to hear percussion) move your feet when you feel the beat, yeah
(Turn it upside down) ooh, yeah
(Love to hear percussion) hey
(Love to hear it)
Flute player, play your flute
'Cause I know that you want to get your thang on
Well, you see, I've made up my mind about it
It's got to be the rhythm, no doubt about it, whoa-whoa
'Cause when the guitar player start playin'
With a syncopated rhythm, with the scratch-scratch-scratch
Makes me wanna move my body, yeah, yeah, yeah
And when the drummer starts beating that beat
He nails that beat with a syncopated rhythm
With a rat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat on the drums, hey, yeah, yeah
(Turn the beat around) turn it around and 'round and 'round, oh, yeah
(Love to hear percussion) oh, yeah-eh, yeah
(Turn it upside down) ooh, yeah-eh
(Love to hear percussion) my, my, my, my, my
(Love to hear it) yeah!
(Love to hear it) woo!
(Love to hear it) whoa, oh
(Love to hear it) hey, eh-yeah
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
(Turn the beat around) turn the beat around
(Love to hear percussion) turn the beat around and 'round
(Turn it upside down) eh, yeah, yeah
(Love to hear percussion) my, my-my, my, my-my-my
My, my-my
My, my-my
My, my-my, my, my-my-my
(Yes) ah!
(Yes) ah!
My, my-my
My, my-my
My, my-my, my, my-my-my
(Yes) ah!
(Yes) ah!
(Turn the beat around) hey, yeah
(Love to hear percussion) move your feet when you feel the beat, yeah
(Turn it upside down) yeah, yeah, yeah
(Love to hear percussion)
(Turn the beat around) turn the beat around, yeah
(Love to hear percussion)
(Turn it upside down) turn it upside down
(Love to hear percussion) let me hear it!
