《Trippin’》歌词

[00:04:21]

[00:04:21] I grew up in a small town

[00:04:21] World War II housing

[00:04:21] For people of color

[00:04:21] Now when I was a kid round 8 years old

[00:04:21] My bedroom wall was next to a single guy

[00:04:21] A thin wall away from mine

[00:04:21] Was that a sign

[00:04:21] Trippin'

[00:04:21] Trippin' on a memory

[00:04:21] You know I'm trippin'

[00:04:21] Memories

[00:04:21] Nearly every weekend the guy played music

[00:04:21] That I later found out was jazz

[00:04:21] The bass funky ....the sax player

[00:04:21] The trumpet soloed

[00:04:21] maybe Ray Charles or Les McCann

[00:04:21] The sound was oh so soaked

[00:04:21] with a lot of blues

[00:04:21] Maybe it was Miles

[00:04:21] The music really drew me in

[00:04:21] I love the way it made me feel

[00:04:21] Made me hope this dream

[00:04:21] Just trippin'

[00:04:21] Trippin' on a memory

[00:04:21] A memory

[00:04:21] The music would play as he got dressed

[00:04:21] The groove that they do at the club

[00:04:21] When the DJ turned off the music

[00:04:21] They're leaving home with some girl to rub

[00:04:21] The music would start up again

[00:04:21] Surrounded by the sex

[00:04:21] the blues

[00:04:21] the knocks on the wall

[00:04:21] Mama was always screaming

[00:04:21] Is somebody hurt

[00:04:21] Or did somebody fall

[00:04:21] backgroud

[00:04:21] I never knew ,you'd draw me in

[00:04:21] foreground.

[00:04:21] I loved the music

[00:04:21] Loved the way it drew me in

[00:04:21] Loved the way it made me feel

[00:04:21] Made me hope and dream that day

[00:04:21] I dreamed of

[00:04:21] Playing on the records

[00:04:21] Being at the gig

[00:04:21] Knockin on the thin wall

[00:04:21] Later I found that music could mean

[00:04:21] What you want it to mean

[00:04:21] Its the yen and the yang

[00:04:21] As Cannon used to say Ahuuuummm !

[00:04:21] THE BALL USED TO SAY AAAHHHUUUMMM !

[00:04:21] As the ball,used to say AAAAAHHHUMMMM !
