You and me been down here
Can't buy a thrill
It must be nice up there
on top of the hill
Trouble calls you by your name
Knocks on your door
and you know why
and you know what for
But it's alright
It's alright
You got soul and everybody knows
that it's alright
Double-dealin' under the table
as you place your bet
Thought they took you for all you had
but they forget
I got my feet to keep on dancin
Might feel your being dragged along
like a marionette
Might feel they been pulling your strings
but don't forget
I got my feet to keep on dancin
I got the truth to keep from lying
I got the weight to keep from flying
I might be broke, but I ain't broken
I might smile, but I ain't jokin
I got my feet to keep on dancin
This ain't over, this ain't it
I ain't never gonna have enough sense to quit
Everything this brother puts out is classic. Check out the label stuff, check out the independent. Check it all out. A giant you shouldn't sleep on. Brooks Long
Freewheeling songs that draw clear inspiration from Afrobeat, blending darting horn charts with warm vocal melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 21, 2017
