Lyrics Curtis Mayfield

Curtis Mayfield

Soul Music

On the West side there's a stuff wide space

Down in the basement of a secret place

People there don't mind. Cos everybody's got time

Close relations with the people you know

Kind of funky but you don't wanna go

Happy for the love I found

We're celebrating all over town

Hold on, hold on baby. Let me take you higher

Shake it, shake it baby. Set my baby on fire

Soul music is so pretty. When you're living in the city

Swinging in and out to and fro

Why she want me? That. I don't know

Just the way I wanna be

She likes to keep me free

Grooving in, sucking in with the beat

Stopping hands on the good, fine meat

She sure like to walk with me

With the Soul Music.

Just continue to shout. Let me take you higher. Higher

Shake it, shake it baby. Set your baby on fire

Soul music is so pretty. When you're living in the city

Feel a tingle all in in my pants

I can make it if I take a chance

Can't go nowhere, just wanna dance

With the Soul Music, Soul Music, Soul Music. Soul, Soul

Come on, come on baby. Let me take you higher

Shake it, shake it baby. Set my baby on fire

Soul music is so pretty. When you're living in the city

On the West side there's a stuff wide space

Down in the basement of a secret place

Where people there don't mind. Cos everybody's got time

With the Soul Music, Everybody Walks Soul Music, Everybody talks Soul Music.

Soul, Soul

Hold on, hold on baby. Let me take you higher

Shake it, shake it baby. Set my baby on fire

Soul music is so pretty. When you're living in the city

Swinging in and out to and fro

Why she want me? That. I don't know

Just the way I wanna be

She likes to keep me free

She likes to walk with me (Soul)

She likes to talk with me (Soul)

Moving in and out

She like to move on up!
