Beats down and dirty beats in my soul
Sometimes I feel like I'm dancing on gold
Beats got me movin' beats in control
Won't let me down if I'm feelin' low
Tell somebody, tell somebody, tell somebody
Just try to make the music go
Tell somebody, tell somebody, tell somebody
He's down and dirty he's got no wife
He's got an old guitar and that is his life
He's got the rhythm he's got the jive
And when we touch each others wires we're on fire
Tell somebody, tell somebody, tell somebody
And you know we always play each other
Tell somebody, tell somebody, tell somebody
I don't care what you say I'm gonna play
I don't do what anybody says 'cos I know
I know what I want out of life
Yeah sometimes he says well it serves you right
Instead of sleeping you're out playing all night
But he is my buddy he understands
Tell somebody, tell somebody, tell somebody
I gotta play it don't you know
Tell somebody, tell somebody, tell somebody
And sometimes we get into a royal battle even in the streets
You know those electrical wires how they get crossed
Sometimes they explode so I hit him
And he gets the guitar and we hit the stage
And we play it rough and tough
