[Verse 1]
I was driving down the highway, my music playing loud
I drove into a truckstop, stepped up feelin' proud
The stupid gas attendant said, "Hey, stop that fucking row!"
There's always someone somewhere who'll try and turn it down
[Pre-Chorus]
So if you need some action and nothing comes around
Don't call the doctor, turn up the sound
[Chorus]
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
[Verse 2]
I was lying on the beach, taking the rays
Listening to Deep Purple, reminiscing of old days
I was hassled by the lifeguard, so I kicked him to the ground
There's always someone somewhere who'll try and turn you down
[Pre-Chorus]
So if you need some action and nothing comes around
Don't call the doctor, turn up the sound
[Chorus]
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
I'm sick of people saying our music is too loud
They never stop complaining, try and turn us down
But if you want it louder we'll turn it up full blast
They'll never stop the music, they're living in the past
[Pre-Chorus]
So if you need some action and nothing comes around
Don't call the doctor, turn up the sound
[Chorus]
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
Play it loud, alright
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood
Play it loud
In your neighbourhood...
