Somebody play on the guitar strings
Makes me think of my favorite songs
Reminds me of when I heard Aretha sing
Gladys, Tina, and Chaka Khan
Can't go back to yesterday
But can we just put the thongs away
And fall back in love with music
Nothin' but the music
Oh
Everybody knows that Marvin's gone
Still I gotta tell you what's going on
Said the music gone
Where'd the soul go?
It's all about the video
We don't sing no more
Where's the music gone?
Where'd the music go?
It's all just for the dough
It ain't soul no more
Where's the music gone?
Still hear Donny playin' them keys
Singin' one day we'll all be free
Can't even turn on my radio
Somebody hollerin' bout a bitch or a ho
Yeah I got soul. Right by the exit. Next to the blues.
Leela James shows where the cupboard should stand. I am falling back in love with "black" music.
