Songtexte I Want to Take You Higher - Sly & The Family Stone

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Beat is gettin' stronger
Music gettin' longer, too
Music is a-flashin' me

I want to, I want to, I want to take you higher
I wanna take you higher
Baby, baby, baby, light my fire

Boom laka-laka-laka, Boom laka-lak-goon-ka boom
Hey, hey, hey, hey

Sound is in your city, too
Music's still flashin' me
