California Soul

Edwin Starr · Other Songs - Edwin Starr

Like a sound you hear

That lingers in your ear

You can't forget

From sunrise to sunset



It's all in the air

You hear it everywhere

No matter what you do

It's gonna get a hold on you



California soul

California soul

They say the sun

Comes up every morning



And if you listen carefully

The winds that ride

On the high tide

Whistle a melody



So the people started to sing

And that's how the

Surf gave birth untold to

California soul



California soul

When you hear the beat

You wanna pat your feet

And you've gotta move cause



It's really such a groove

Puts a brand new kind of

Thinking in your mind

And you can't go wrong



Cause you're happy all day long

California soul

California soul

They had the melody and the beat



But it still didn't seem complete

Until they saw two lovers kissing

They knew just what was missing

So happy they were



Rocking and reeling

Because that added

That loving feeling

To California soul



California soul

California soul

Now if they move you

Will it move you



It can groove, you, baby

California Soul now now now

California Soul, yeah

California Soul



Satisfaction, darling
