VERSE ONE
Jesus Christ touched the life
Of a 16-year-old guy
Now his eyes open wide
Since he finally saw the light
Feeling right Sunday night
Stumbled on the AM dial
Spent a while with Paul Heil
Then this boy became a sight!
What happened next can’t be explained
His taste in music was quick to change
He found himself with the volume cranked
His poor parents jumped
As the plumb-ing - clanked
….And they yelled,
CHORUS
Turn it down! Turn it down!
Now he loves that 4-part sound
Keep your rap and your jive
He’s jamming out to Legacy Five
Just can’t sit on his keister
When its Jeff & Sheri Easter
Now he’s a certified Southern Gospel fan….
You can hear the neighbors all around this town…
Yell Turn it down! Turn it down! Turn it down!
VERSE TWO
Split decision in revision:
Karen Peck or Greater Vision?
There's no splitting hairs
When it comes to the Kingdom Heirs
On his iPod I have found
Ernie Haase & Signature Sound
Such a joy to deploy
His Box Set of the Georgia boys!
Did you get his invitation
To go see the Inspirations
A Rambo poster bought he
No, not Sly Stalone!
It’s Reba, Buck and Dottie!
CHORUS
Turn it down! Turn it down!
He was lost, but now he’s found
Ask his mother, he discovered
Both the Blackwood AND Booth Brothers
No, his morning’s never draggin’
When he puts on some Chuck Wagon
Now he’s a certified Southern Gospel fan….
You can hear folks all around the land...
Yell turn it down! Turn it down! Turn it down!
RAP:
When Christmastime comes nigh
There’s only one thing he wants to find
A brand new XBOX is cockamamie
He just wants tickets to see the McKameys!
Eatin’ his mornin’ cereal with his mama
The Imperial’s faces on his pajamas
He wears his Beats by Dre for….
Kickin' Bill and Gloria Gaither
He dreams of working for a brokerage
That just sells tickets for the Oak Ridge
Boys……Did you hear that noise?
It’s not Squire Parsons it’s the Florida Boys!
If you see him coming, better give him space
It’s something your mind just can’t erase
It lights up his whole zitty face
When he’s boomin’ that GOLD CITY BASS
CHORUS
Turn it down! Turn it down!
Now he knows he’s Glory-bound
You might be a prince or pauper
He knows you’ll just love the Hoppers!
He’s commencing singing Hinsons,
Inspirations and the Statesmen
Now he’s a certified Southern Gospel fan….
You can hear the folks from sunup
to sundown…
Yell turn it down! Turn it down!
Turn it down!
CHORUS
Turn it down! Turn it down!
Now it’s the Browders and the Browns
Feelin’ the Nelon’s while he’s kneeling’
And the Crabbs complete his healin'
It’s a prayer rally with the Talleys
Then he laughs with ol’ Mark Lowry
Now he’s a certified Southern Gospel fan….
You can hear the Perrys from clear across the town…
Turn it down! Turn it down! Turn it down!
EXIT
You know, it’s his dream to gather up a bunch of quartets
and make a big ‘choir’-tet.
He’d grab the Cathedrals, Triumphant, Kingsmen, Mark Trammell…
All of them, not just Mark. Let’s see…Dove Brothers.
He asked his mama if he could live with the Speer family…
She said no.
He wrote a book report in high school about the Happy Goodmans.
You know he was the only kid in town to have Brian Free and Assurance sing at his birthday party this year.
……Do you know how hard it is to find a rhyme for Lefevre? Dang near impossible….
