Turn It Up
Tyler Rich Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If your week's been 40 hours too long
Countin' down the minutes but your mind's already gone
It's friday night it's quitin time
We're about to get loud
So clock out and
Jump into your truck, fire it up, leave it all behind you in a cloud of dust
When your song comes on the radio
You only want to hear it with the windows down, so roll em down and

Turn it up turn it up

Til' the speakers blow
If you got it on 11 then you got it too low
Bout' time to let the whole world know that you ain't turnin' down
Turn it up turn it up
Til' you're feelin alright been workin' all week
But we'll be goin' all night
It's a red cup, drinks up, bottoms up, kind of a night
So throw your hands in the sky
And turn it up up up
Turn it up up up tonight
Turn it up up up
Turn it up up up tonight

Stop at home, grab your hat and throw your boots on
Theres a party downtown goin all night long
It's 2 for 1 and Johnny pours em real strong
So we're goin out
Yeah we'll be throwin em back and sippin em down
Whenever we're together
It's a hell of a crowd
When the band's playin' your song
you only wanna hear it if it's cranked up loud
So you tell em

Turn it up turn it up
Til' the speakers blow
If you got it on 11 then you got it too low
Yeah it's high time to
Let the whole world know that we ain't turnin' down
Turn it up turn it up
Til' the feeling's just right been workin' all week
But we'll be goin' all night
It's a red cup, drinks up, bottoms up, kind of a night
So throw your hands in the sky
So turn it up up up
Turn it up up up tonight
Turn it up up up
Turn it up up up tonight

Now they're saying last call
The DJ's slowing things down
Gotta let em know
We're not ready to go
Before the lights come on
We've still got one more song
Gotta hear it loud

Gotta sing it loud

Turn it up turn it up
Til' the speakers blow
If you got it on 11 then you got it too low
Yeah it's high time to
Let the whole world know that we ain't turnin' down
Turn it up turn it up
Til' the feeling's just right been workin' all week
But we'll be goin' all night
It's a red cup, drinks up, bottoms up, kind of a night
So throw your hands in the sky
So turn it up up up
Turn it up up up tonight




Turn it up up up
Turn it up up up tonight
