Soul Thing - Taylor Hicks

I’ve been traveling all these years

Just barely getting by

The road can be your friend

Or the devil in disguise

When the tough get going

The muses visit me

Yet in soft, low tones

They always say to me

Say to me

«It ain’t no groove thing

It ain’t no country twang

It’s a simple refrain;

It’s a soul thang.»

(2x)

Where the city street meets the county road

Where the sun is nice and warm

No matter how long I may roam

This song still takes us home

Takes us home

Now we’ll tell you about these times

When the blues come out to play

And jazz leaves her number…

It’s funny, she always says:

«It ain’t no groove thing

It ain’t no country twang

It’s a simple refrain;

It’s a soul thang.»

(2x)

Now I’ll tell you about these times

When the blues come out to play

And jazz leaves her number…

It’s funny, she always says:

«Well, the city lights fly by me

As their eyes are getting heavy

We’re sending our love over telephone wire

These days getting lonelier by the mile… by the mile.»

It ain’t no groove thing

It ain’t no country twang

It’s a simple refrain;

It’s a soul thang.

(2x)

It ain’t no groove thing

Yeah, ain’t no country twang

It’s a simple refrain;

It’s a soul thang.

(2x)
