Lyrics California Soul - Marlena Shaw

Like a sound you hear that lingers in your ear
But you can't forget, from sundown to sunset, now
It's all in the air, you hear it everywhere
No matter what you do it's gonna grab a hold on you

California soul
California soul

They say the sun comes up every morning
And if you listen oh so carefully
The winds that ride on the high tide
Whistles a melody

So the people started to sing
And that's how the surf gave birth untold
To California soul
California soul (Ooh, feels good)

When you hear the beat you wanna pat your feet
And you've got ta move 'cause it's really such a groove, now
Puts a brand new kind of thinking in your mind
And you can't go wrong 'cause you're groovin' all day long

California soul
California soul

They had the melody and the beat, yo
But it still didn't seem complete, yes
Until they saw two lovers kissing, oh sure
They knew just what was missing

So happy they were rocking and reeling
Because they had added that loving feeling
To California soul
California soul, might as well get with it
Sound you hear that lingers in your ear
Oh, you just cannot forget, from the morning 'till the sun goes down
So just gimme, yeah, just gimme, yeah
Oh, it's all a trend
