Ooh Child
Hall And Oates · Our Kind Of Soul [2004]
Ooh child, things are gonna get easier
Ooh child, things will be brighter
Ooh child, things are gonna get easier
Ooh child, things will be brighter
Some day
We'll put it together and we'll get it all done
Some day
When your head is much lighter
Some day
Walk in the rays of a beautiful sun
Some day
When the world is much brighter
Ooh child, things are gonna be easier
Ooh child, things will be brighter and brighter
Ooh child, things are gonna be easier
Ooh child, things will be brighter
Some day
We'll put it together and we'll get it all done
Some day
When your head is much lighter
Some day
We'll walk in the rays of a beautiful sun
Some day
When the world is much brighter
Some day
We'll put it together and we'll get it all done
Some day
When your head is much, much lighter
Some day
We'll walk in the rays of a beautiful sun
Some day
When the world is much brighter
Oh, oh, some day
We'll walk in the rays of a beautiful sun
Some day
When your head is much lighter
Some day
We'll put it together and we'll get it all done
Some day
When your head is much lighter
Ooh child, ooh child
Ooh child, things are gonna be brighter
Oh, right now, let's get it together
Get it together and we'll get it all done
Right now, right now
One day we'll get together if we wanna get together
Ooh child, ooh child, ooh child
Get it together and we'll get it all done
Right now, right now
One day we'll get together if we wanna get together
Ooh child, ooh child
Right now, right now
One day we'll get together if we wanna get together
Right now, right now
Right now, let's get it together
