The Temptations
Soul Music
[Spoken Intro]
Oh, I remember back in the day, Terry
Ah, you feel that too, huh?
That soul music, baby, woo
Ha ha ha, yeah
Warms your soul, huh?
You know, we can't be the only ones that's feeling this
I know, it's time to ressurect that 'cause there's nothing out there
There's nothing like that right now
That's right
Come on, Terry, break it down now
[Verse 1]
Back in the day when I was a child
I remember the songs that I heard
Dad would sit back and listen
He would rarely say a word (Rarely say a word)
Mama came home from another day of work
Talkin' 'bout Marvin Gaye
And the song that she heard on the radio
On her way home today
Talkin' 'bout
[Chorus]
Soul music
(The kind of music you make love to)
(I wanna hear) Soul music
(Yeah, what I wanna hear, what I wanna hear)
(I wanna hear) Soul music
(It made us feel good about ourselves)
Soul music
(Yeah, yeah)
What I wanna hear, what I wanna hear
(Wanna hear soul)
[Verse 2]
I remember every Saturday
We would sit down and watch TV
Every Saturday at 1 o'clock
Was a favorite time for me, yes it was
I couldn't wait to see the Soul Train comin' down the road
(Choo choo)
I couldn't wait to hear Don say "Love, peace, and soul"
[Chorus]
Soul music
(The kind of music we made love to)
(I wanna hear) Soul music
(Huh, is what I wanna hear, what I wanna hear)
(I wanna hear) Soul music
(It made us feel good about ourselves)
(I wanna hear) Soul music
What I wanna hear, what I wanna hear
[Bridge]
Those are the days I dreamed about
When music made us scream and shout (Oh yeah)
Took us away from our everyday life
And made us feel sanctified
Oh, we laughed and danced the night away
We didn't worry about work the next day
All we did was live
For a moment, nothing else mattered
[Chorus]
Soul music
(Ah, the kind of music you make love to)
(I wanna hear) Soul music
(What I wanna hear, what I wanna hear)
(I wanna hear) Soul music
(Oh, it made us feel good about ourselves)
(I wanna hear) Soul music
(Do you remember?)
What I wanna hear, what I wanna hear
[Bridge]
Come on
That's right
Oh-oh-oh (Ooh, woo, oh oh oh oh)
[Chorus]
Soul music
(Oh, the kind of music you make love to)
(I wanna hear) Soul music
(Huh, what I wanna hear, what I wanna hear)
(I wanna hear) Soul music
(Oh, it made us feel good about ourselves)
(I wanna hear) Soul music
What I wanna hear, what I wanna hear
Soul music
(Some kind of love, some kind of love)
(I wanna hear) Soul music
(Talkin' 'bout what I wanna hear)
Soul music
(What I wanna hear, what I wanna hear)
(The kind of music you make love to)
(I wanna hear) Soul music
(What I wanna hear)
What I wanna hear, what I wanna hear

Soul music

(I wanna hear) Soul music
What I wanna hear, what I wanna hear
Soul music
