So I Got to Groove Songtext
von Tower of Power

I put down the spoon and picked up the fork
I went and got a gun, felt like Sergeant York
I put down the ice, uh, 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 to 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 (ooh, uh)
I got to groove
The kind of groove that makes you move (yeah, uh)
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, huh, to get with the flow
If I'm going so fast, how come I′m moving so slow?

I dropped the rock, uh, and picked up the phone
I cried out for help 'cause I felt so alone
I was ready to surrender, huh, 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, uh
Now there′s no place to go

So I got to groove (yeah, uh)
I got to groove (yes, I groove)
The kind of groove that makes you move (hey, uh)
I've got to groove
Come on, jive your flow, uh, uh, uh


You know what?
All the things that used to fix me (you don′t hear it, say)
All the things that used to fix me (yeah)
All the things that used to fix me (uh)
They don't fix me like the groove, no, yeah, oh
All the things that used to fix me
You don′t know what I'm talking ′bout, uh
All the things that used to fix me (yeah, yeah, yeah)
All the things that used to fix me (no)
They don't fix me no more, no more, no more, uh

So I've got to groove (come on, baby, uh)
I′ve got to groove (you know what? Uh)
The kind of groove that makes you move (yeah, ooh)
I′ve got to groove
Come over here now, say, uh

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

So I've got to groove (yeah, uh)
I′ve got to groove (you didn't hear me though)
The kind of groove that makes you move (yes, it do, uh)
I′ve got to groove (can you feel it? Uh)

I've got to groove (feel it in your body, uh)
I've got to groove (make you dance, dance all night long)
The kind of groove that makes you move (yeah, uh)
I′ve got to groove (uh, promise you can hear me now)

All the things that used to fix me
You don′t know what I'm talking ′bout, uh
All the things that used to fix me
They just, they just don't do it
All the things that used to fix me (ha, come on)
They don′t fix me like the groove, no
All the things that used to fix me (uh, are you with me?)
All the things that used to fix me (no, no, they just don't do it)
All the things that used to fix me (uh, I wish you knew what I was talking ′bout)
They don't fix me no more, no more, no more, uh

So I've got to groove (come on, dance with me now, uh, come on, baby)
I′ve got to groove (yeah, yeah, come on)
I′ve got to groove (I've got to groove, come on, sing with me now, uh)
I′ve got to groove (I've got to groove, that′s what I got to do, yeah)
I've got to groove (ooh, can you feel it?)
I′ve got to groove (anybody, baby, yeah)
I've got to groove (come on)
