Ode to Soul Man
Hey Syl, What's happening brother?
Well you see someone brother Willy it's like this
The news is goin' around town
How broadway woman dance soul man down, yeah I did
I wanna tell you about it
It's like this, uh
Got his ways, oh soul man
Nothing scared, they call him soul man
I saw him there with Brown, and
I was dancing him all 'round
He had a throw away woman scared to come into town, yeah
That powerful Roger, he had the floor
When broadway woman walked in the door
Somebody shouted out, loud and clear
He said look out ya'll, talk in here, uh
Now come on baby with your little skin and legs
Show 'em what you can do
Shingaling foovaloo
Like in broadway go ahead show 'em, uh
Broadway woman, your soul man
She said, "Come on daddy and make your stand, now"
My soul man, blue broadway woman, friend
He could really have to dance to save his man
Uhh, alright
Now the jazz went wild
Watchin' broadway woman move
Poor soul man, stealing all her soul
But from that day on soul man sold his soul
'Cause broadway woman show him who was boss, uh
This side turn, hit it baby, come on side turn
Alright hit it, slide and turn again, come on baby
Let it burn, uh
You got it, that's the way, alright!
Come on, come on broadway woman
Let it move, get it groove, ooh
Come on baby, you're looking good now
Alright baby, I'm on the move, groove, ooh
Well you see someone brother Willy it's like this
The news is goin' around town
How broadway woman dance soul man down, yeah I did
I wanna tell you about it
It's like this, uh
