Jackie DeShannon - Somebody Turn The Music On Lyrics

Somebody turn the music on
Oh, let's dance away the night
Hold on to the song keep alive the feelin'
'Cause the feelin' drives you on
Somebody turn the music on
Somebody turn the music on

I was sippin' my tequila
Watchin' Sheila and a sailor at the bar
She had both her hands in his pockets
And all the kid could see was smoke and stars

In the corner by the staircase
There's Joanna with her eyes upon the door
And I wondered if she could make it happen
Like she had so many nights before

Everybody came here for somethin'
And they'll take whatever comes along

Somebody turn the music on
Oh, let's dance away the night
Hold on to the song keep alive the feelin'
'Cause the feelin' drives you on
Somebody turn the music on
Somebody turn the music on

When Melissa made her entrance
With her dancer and her new credit card
We all knew what she had intended
And the scene that was about to start

Through all the noise and confusion
I heard someone whisper in my ear
"Say, don't I know you from some place?
How often do you come in here?"

Now, we can talk about it
We've got all the time from now 'til dawn

Somebody turn the music on
Let's dance away the night
Hold on to the song keep alive the feelin'
'Cause the feelin' drives you on
Somebody turn the music on
Somebody turn the music on

So now you know my secret
To my survival and tried to song

Somebody turn the music on
Turn the music, turn the music on
Hold on to the song
Let the feelin' drive you on
Hold on to the song
Let the feelin' drive you on
Somebody turn the music on turn the music on
