SLY STONE lyrics : "Dance to the Music"

Cynthia:
Say, get up! And dance to the music!
Get on up! And dance to the music!


Backups sing doo wop:
Buum-buum bu-bu-bu boo-buum-bumm.

Buum-buum bu-bu-bu boo-buum-bumm.
Buum-buum bu-bu-bu boo-buum-bumm.
Buum-buum bu-bu-bu boo-buum-bumm.


All:
Dance to the Music.

Dance to the Music.

Freddie: Hey Greg!

Greg: What?

Freddie:

All we need is a drummer,
For people who only need a beat, yeah!
Drum solo.


I'm gonna add a little guitar,
And make it easy to move your feet.

Guitar solo.

Larry:

I'm gonna add some bottom,
So that the dancers a-just won't hide.
Bass solo.


Sly:
You might like to hear my organ,

I said, "Ride, Sally, Ride, now"

Organ solo.


Sly: Cynthia!
Cynthia: What?

Sly: Jerry!
Jerry: What?
Sly:

If I could a-hear the horns blow,
Cynthia on the throne, yeah!
Sax & trumpet duet.


Sly:
Listen to me!

Cynthia & Jerry got a message they're sayin',

Cynthia:

All the squares, go home!

Sly: Yeaaaaahhhh-yeah!


Short instrumental break.


Sly: Listen to the voices.

All instruments play while Backups repeat the doo wop from above.


All:
Dance to the Music. Oh!!!

Dance to the Music. Yay-yay-yeah.
Dance to the Music.
Fade.

Dance to the Music. Yeah-ee-yah.
Dance to the Music...
