Songtexte Squire for Hire (Restless Soul Capricorn Mix) - Marlena Shaw , Nathan Haines

Hey, you cats sure got a groove going on here
Kinda reminds me of the Squire
See, he always called himself the Squire for hire
Oh yeah, folks would come from miles around
Just to hear what the Squire was putting down
And you know, the Squire always had a secret smile on his face
Like he was listening to some other song in some other space
Ooh, ooh, what a groove
Now, now everybody loved to be hanging with the Squire for hire
'Cause when he was flush, had some coin in his pocket
And the party was on
Now sometimes the Squire had to make a swag gig, you know
Maybe some birthdays, even a little convention or two
But boy when he was through, he always knew where he could go to blow
And I do mean blow, mmm, mmm, mmm
Now another thing about the Squire for hire
Were the threads on his back, cool, solid
From his head to his feet
No other cat could hardly compete with the Squire
Now the last I heard about the Squire for hire
He's still on the scene
He's playing his acts and he still is mean, y'all
So now if you hear that the Squire is in your town
Run, run, run, run, run on down
Get your soul satisfied, get your brain a little fried
By the Squire for hire
He'll naturally set your soul on fire
Get the groove
The Squire's on the move, y'all
Oh no, he ain't backing up
He still ain't finished filling his musical cup
Run on down and see the Squire when he's up off in your town
'Cause he's still bad
