If It Don’t Turn You On (You Oughta Leave It Alone) Lyrics
[Chorus]
If it don't turn you on
You oughta leave it alone
Don't turn you on?
You really oughta leave it alone
[Verse 1]
So many people in the same old beat
Don't you think it's time (Time)
To try a different stroke?
Got something good, you oughta knock on wood
When things get rough, whoa, you oughta give it up
[Chorus]
If it don't turn you on
You oughta leave it alone
Don't turn you on?
You really oughta leave it alone
[Verse 2]
A-so many people really wanna change
But they keep on doin' that same old thing, yeah-yeah
You got something good, you oughta knock on wood
And if it's right, you oughta hold on tight
[Chorus]
If it don't turn you on
You oughta leave it alone
Don't turn you on?
You really oughta leave it alone
If it don't turn you on
You oughta leave it alone
Don't turn you on?
You really oughta leave it alone
[Verse 1]
So many people in the same old beat
Don't you think it's time (Time)
To try a different stroke?
Got something good, you oughta knock on wood
When things get rough, whoa, you oughta give it up
[Chorus]
If it don't turn you on
You oughta leave it alone
Don't turn you on?
You really oughta leave it alone
[Verse 2]
A-so many people really wanna change
But they keep on doin' that same old thing, yeah-yeah
You got something good, you oughta knock on wood
And if it's right, you oughta hold on tight
[Chorus]
If it don't turn you on
You oughta leave it alone
Don't turn you on?
You really oughta leave it alone
[Bridge]
Doodle-loo-do, doodle-loo-do
Doodle-loo-do, do-do-do-do-do
Doodle-loo-do, doodle-loo-do
Doodle-loo-do, do-do-do-do-do (Whoa!)
[Post-Chorus]
If it don't turn you on
Step back and leave it alone
If you got something good, just-a
A-knock, knock on wood
If it don't turn you on
Step back and leave it alone
So many people in the same old funk
Don't you think it's time to try a different stroke?
If it don't turn you on
Step back and leave it alone
And if it's-a, if it's right
You jetta, a-hold, hold on tight
If it don't turn you on
Step back and leave it alone
You better get it together now, y'all
Listen to me now
If it don't turn you on
