Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Some call it country with a little bit of rhythm and blues And when the boys start rockin' There's a beat that you just can't lose Where it's gonna take us nobody knows It sure feels good to the body and soul [Chorus] I love the slide of a steal guitar I love the moan of an old blues harp I love the shake of a tambourine I love the bass when it's low and mean So put on your shoutin' shoes And turn it loose Turn it loose You feel like dancin' And you just can't stay in your seat Your knees start knockin' And you can't help stompin' your feet Before you even know it you'll be singin' a long Makes me want to stay hear all night long [Chorus] Turn it loose Everybody put on your shoutin' shoes and turn it loose Grab your shoutin' shoes and turn it loose
