Move

Can you hear it?
Can you feel it?
Do you know it?
Come on, show it!

Listen to the thunder of the pounding drum
Driving out the rhythm, Brother, let it come!
Reaching deep inside down to my feet and toes
Let the power move me anywhere it goes!

I gotta move
I gotta groove
I gotta feel it flowing through me clean and hard
I gotta sing
I gotta swing
I gotta let the feeling move me all around the yard

Fascinating rhythm was the name of the song
Every time I hear it I am carried along
First my feet are moving and I’m starting to swing
Then the music has me and I can’t feel a thing

I gotta move

It doesn’t really matter where the melody goes
I feel the underlying beat and everything flows
A Twist, a Stomp, a Rumba, man, I just want to jam!
When the drummer starts a wailing I don’t know where I am

I gotta move
I gotta groove
I gotta feel it pounding when the rhythm is sweet
I gotta sing
I gotta swing
I gotta let the feeling take control of my feet

I feel the rhythm move me
The power takes control of my mind
The sweet enchanting beauty
I gotta dance, I gotta unwind

I GOTTA MOVE!
