Emilio Castillo

Ain't nothin' I can say, nothin' I can do
I feel so bad, yeah, I feel so blue
I got to make it right for everyone concerned
Even if it's me, if it means it's me what's gettin' burned

'Cause I could never make you unhappy
No, I couldn't do that girl
Only wish I didn't love you so
Makes it so, so very hard to go
(So very hard to go)
'Cause I love you so (So very hard to go)
Ah, I love you so

I knew the time would come
I'd have to pay for my mistakes,
I can't blame you for what you're doin' to me girl
Even tho' my heart aches
Your dreams have all come true just the way you planned them
So I'll just step aside, I'm gon step aside
And lend a helping hand then
'Cause I could never make you unhappy
No I couldn't do that girl
Only wish I didn't love you so
Makes it so, so very hard to go
(So very hard to go)
'Cause I love you so (so very hard to go)
Oh, I love you so

And it ain't easy to walk away when a man love somebody
(so very hard to go) hey, hey, hey, hey

This time it's real
Saw me a girl today
Who walk with such a gentle sway
And I knew right from the start
She as the one who can cop my heart

I know someday
That we could happen
In a special way

I wish I may
I wish I might
Make you my all-star shining bright

And I know, I can feel it
This time it's real

Other girls that I had were fine
But they were mainly just to pass the time
Though I must confess I had some fun
Now I know that you're the only one

All I can say girl
Is that I love you each and everyday
And if I may
If I might
I'll make you the all-star of my life

And I know, I can feel it, hey
This time it's real
And I know, I can feel it, hey
This time it's real

Now's the time for me to make my move
Girl we gotsa get in the groove
It's what we do with the what we got
Gonna put us up in the slot

And I hope and pray
We'll get together wih no delay
It might be day
It might by night
It don't matter anytime is right

And I know, (Oh) I can feel it (hey)
This time it's real
And I know, (Ahh) I can feel it
This time it's real
And I know, I can feel it (yeay)
This time it's real
And I know, I can feel it (yeah child)
This time it's real
And I know, I can feel it (yes)
This time it's real
And I know, I can feel it (hey)
This time it's real
I can feel it
This time it's real
I can feel it
This time it's real
I can feel it

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.
