Turn It Up
Henry Lee Summer Lyrics

I ain't never been apart of anybodies little craze
I never followed or worshipped the latest trends or crazes

I never knew the latest dances, do the latest rage
I was never interested in the latest dance craze or the latest rage

Well fashion never was one of my sorta suits
Fashion was never really my thing

I just can't seem to get past blue jeans, tennis shoes
I prefer a simple and comfortable attire like blue jeans and tennis shoes

Well I remember e'vry body's doin' the Saturday Night Fever
I remember when Saturday Night Fever was the popular trend

I was diggin' Lynyrd Skynyrd, B.T.O., and Bob Seger
But I was more into rock and roll bands like Lynyrd Skynyrd, B.T.O., and Bob Seger

All night long
I could enjoy listening to their music all night long

Well I never got off on that punk rock scene
Punk rock music was not something I found interesting

I couldn't see me in a mohawk if you know what I mean
I couldn't picture myself with a mohawk hairstyle

And then "My Sharona" played a million thousand times
When My Sharona was played repeatedly, I was annoyed

I thought to shout out to someone I was gonna lose my mind
I was going crazy and had to tell someone

Everybody got nervous, grew sick, gotta fever
Everyone was affected by the overplaying of My Sharona

All right
But it's all good

Well, Turn it up, yeah
I just want to hear the music loud

Let the good times roll
Let's have some fun

I got that old time music, In my soul
I have a strong connection with old-time music

Yes I do
It's true

Well I heard it on the TV set that rap is where it's at
I heard that rap music is the current trend on TV

I kinda liked it myself the way the ratta-tatta tat
I found myself liking the beat of the music

Well I need a feelin' down deep in my soul
I need to feel a strong connection to the music

I gotta have the house of rock, and gotta hear the mojo flow
I need to listen to rock music and feel the energy

Well I need people singin' to get that old time feelin'
I need to hear people sing to evoke that old-time feeling

While I'm diggin' Lynyrd Skynyrd, R.E.O., and Bob Seger
I enjoy listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd, R.E.O., and Bob Seger while feeling this way

Turn it up, turn it up
I want the music to be louder

Let the good times roll, let it roll
Let's have some fun

I got to Rock and Roll aahhhh
I want to listen to rock and roll music

Let the freedom sing, yeah
Let the music express freedom

I got the old time music
I prefer old-time music

Yeahhhhhhh Oww
Yeah, that's it!

whooo
Exclamation of excitement
