There`s a place where everybody`s goin to
It`s the place that`s the place to be
It`s the scene where everybody wants to be seen

Late at night and the place will be bumpin

Cause there`s gonna be some hot, funky rhythm and blues

If you choose to go and make a statement
That`s not hard to swallow
But there`s gonna be some competition there

I remember the first day we met
That's the day I'll never forget
You came into my life, made everything right

I remember the first time we touched
Never knew that I could love so much
You ignited the flame, and I still feel the same

Chorus:
I like your style (I like your style)
I like your smile (I like it baby)
I love your heart and I loved you right from the start

I made a wish upon a lucky star
Someone special just the way you are
That wish came true, oh when I foud you
Oooooh

I can still see that star shining bright
With this love there's no end in sight
It's just you and me, we're destined to be

Chorus

Each day is new (I like your style)
When I'm with you (I like it baby)
It's more than on the a, gettin' better in memorylane

There's only one thing that I'd like to do
I want to spend my whole life with you
Till death do us part, because you captured my heart

You're messing up my mind
Think about me all the time
Why you wanna be unkind
The best man you'll ever find
I wish that you could see
Just what you do to me
(You strike my main nerve)
Girl
(My main nerve's been struck)
Girl
(My main nerve's been struck)
You o-o babe
(My main nerve's been struck)
My main nerve
(Your boy's been struck)
When you hit the set
Smoking like a cigarette
My eyes light up like fire
For the girl that I desire
I wish that you could see
Just what you do to me
If I had my way
we'll be moving right today
that way that I've been struck
I swear that I'd been hit by a mack truck
(Repeat)
(My main nerve's been struck)
get it babe
(My main nerve's been struck)
you got it
(My main nerve's been struck)
talk about the pain
(My main nerve's been struck)
Come one that's what you do to me, babe
so mama yeah
(My main nerve's been struck)
(My main nerve's been struck)
you have my main nerve's been struck
you did my main nerve's been struck
you you you you
you hit the stick
just smoking like a cigarette
you just strike my main nerve
strike my main nerve
hey baby
hey lady
you know what you do to me
you know what you do to me
(My main nerve's been struck)

So ya wanna dump out yo' trick bag.
Ease on in a hip thang,
But you ain't exactly sure what is hip.

So you started to let your hair grow.
Spent big bucks on your wardrobe.
Somehow, ya know there's much more to the trip.

(refrain #1)
What is hip?
Tell me, tell me, if you think you know.
What is hip?
If you're really hip,
the question, "Will it show?"
You're into a hip trip.
Maybe hipper than hip.
What is hip?
{ Trumpet solo/guitar solo }
(refrain #1 ends)

You became a part of a new breed.
Been smokin' only the best weed.
Hangin' out with the so called "Hippie set."

Seen in all the right places.
Seen with just the right faces.
You should be satisfied, but it ain't quite right.

{ refrain #1 }

Come on!

(refrain #2)
Hipness is. What it is!
Hipness is. What it is!
Hipness is. What it is!
Sometimes hipness is, what it ain't.
(end refrain #2)

{ guitar solo }

You went an' found you a guru.
In an effort to find you a new you,
And maybe even raise your conscious level.

While you're striving to find the right road,
There's one thing you should know,
"What's hip today, might become passe'."

{ refrain #1 }

{ Trumpet solo }

Think about it y'all.

{ keyboard solo }

{ refrain #2 }

What is hip?
Ahhhhhhhhh!
What is hip?
I'd like to know!
What is hip?
Is it in the style of your hair?
What is hip?
Is it in the clothes that you wear?
What is hip?
I'd like to know.
What is hip?
I'd like to know.
What is hip?
What is hip y'all? Hey!
What is hip?
Hey! Oh!
What is hip?
What is hip y'all?
What is hip?
I wanna know.
What is hip?
Ahhhhhhh!
What is hip?
I wanna know what hipness is.

{the end

There's all kinds of music everywhere you go,
Some folks like it fast and some like it slow,
Some like it hot, some like it blue,
Some folks like it old and some like it new.
Now I'm not knockin' country and I'm not rappin' rap,
Big band swing just ain't my thing and alternative ain't my snap.

The only thing that turns me on
Is when I hear a soulful song.

I like soul with a capital "S",
Soul with a capital "S".
Sweet soul music, that's the best,
Soul with a capital "S".

The music makes you happy or it can make you sad,
It can turn the worst day into the best you've ever had.
For entertainment value, if I had to choose,
You and me might disagree because I like rhythm and blues.
Now I'm not dissin' disco, I'm not sayin' punk is bunk,
I can't settle for heavy metal a-'cause I got to have that funk.

The only thing that turns me on
Is when I hear a soulful song.

I like soul with a capital "S",
Soul with a capital "S".
Sweet soul music, that's the best,
Soul with a capital "S".

There's people who'll tell you to get with the times,
It doesn't even matter if your poem rhymes.
But I'm here to tell you whatever comes along
There's something here for everyone, there ain't no right or wrong.
If soft rock makes you lazy, classical leaves you flat,
And fusion drives you crazy, then - snap - funk is where it's at.

The only thing that turns me on
Is when I hear a soulful song.

I like soul with a capital "S",
Soul with a capital "S".
Sweet soul music, that's the best,
Soul with a capital "S".

Ow! I like soul with a capital "S",
Oh, soul with a capital "S",
Sweet soul music, that's the best,
Soul with a capital "S".

(With a capital S) x4

Oh, I like soul with a capital "S",
Unh, don't you know I like soul with a capital "S",
You gotta gimme some o' that soul, hah, with a capital "S",
Yes, I like soul with a capital "S".

(With a capital S)

Yo, fellas, sounds like some o' that Oakland soul music,
Y' know what I'm talkin' about?

They done found the stroke,
Done found the Oakland Stroke,
They done found the stroke,
Done found the Oakland Stroke.

"OAKLAND" HORN RIFF

Soul with a capital "S",
Oh, gimme some o' that soul with a capital "S",
Oh, I got to have that soul with a capital "S",
(With a capital S) That's what I like,
(With a capital S) Oh, play that music,
(With a capital S)
(With a capital S)

I put down the spoon,
And picked up the fork.
I went and got a gun felt like Sergent York.
I put down the ice,
And pick up the dice.
No matter what the payback
You got to pay the price.
I've been around the world,
With my eyes on the screen.
I've paid lots of money to be hip at the seam.
I've been to the moon
With my feet on the ground.
And now I'm so tired of lying around.

I've been here and there,
I looked everywhere.
I searched high and low,
Now there's no place to go.

So I got to groove.
The kind of groove that makes you move.
I've got to groove.

I've been to the rodeo,
But I fell off the horse.
I've cried me a river
But I couldn't find the source.
I've been to the stow,
To get with the flow.
If I'm going so fast
How come I'm moving so slow?
I dropped the rock,
And I picked up the phone.
I cried out for help cause I felt so alone.
I was ready to surrender
But claimed victory.
Still I don't know what was wrong with me.

I've been here and there,
I looked everywhere.
I searched high and low,
Now there's no place to go.

So I got to groove.
The kind of groove that makes you move.
I've got to groove.

(All the things that use to fix me) They don't fix me like the groove.
(All the things that use to fix me) I wish you all knew what we was talking about.
(All the things that use to fix me) No they just don't do it.
(All the things that use to fix me) I wouldn't lie to ya, they don't fix me no more.

Break down!

I've got to groove.
Tell them what you gotta do.
I've got to groove.
Tell them what you gotta do.

(All the things that use to fix me) No they just don't do it.
(All the things that use to fix me) I wouldn't lie to ya, they don't fix like the groove.
(All the things that use to fix me) Tell them why you wrote this song!
(All the things that use to fix me) No they just don't do it.
(All the things that use to fix me) I wouldn't lie to ya, they don't fix me no more.

I've been here and there,
I looked everywhere.
I searched high and low,
Now there's no place to go.

So I got to groove.
The kind of groove that makes you move.
I've got to groove.
