Music

(album: A Change Is Gonna Come - 2005)

Somebody play on the guitar stings
Makes me think of my favorite songs
Reminds me of when I heard Aretha sang
Gladys, Steven, and Chaka Khan
Can't go back to yesterday
Can we just put the thongs away

And fall back in love with music
Nothing but the music
Oh

Everybody knows that Marvin's gone
Still I gotta tell you what's going on
Said the music gone

Where did all the soul go?
It's all about the video
We don't sang no mo'
Where's the music gone?

Where'd the music go?
It's all just for the dough
It ain't songs no mo'
Where's the music gone?

Still hear Donny playing them keys
Sanging one day we'll all be free
Can't even turn on my radio
Somebody hollering bout a bitch or a hoe

Right now I'm missing music
Black folks count on music

Where did all the soul go?
It's all about the video
We don't sang no mo'
Where's the music gone?
