California Soul

Ooh ooh ooh

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

California soul, California soul

They say the sun comes up every morning
And if you listen carefully
The wind that rides on the high tide
Whistles a melody
So the people started to sing
And that's how the song gave birth, I'm told

To California soul, California soul

When you hear the beat, you wanna pat your feet
And you've got to move 'cause really it's the truth
It's a brand new kind of thinking in your mind
And you can't go wrong 'cause you're happy all day long

California soul, California soul

They had the melody and the beat
But it still didn't seem complete
Until they saw two lovers kissing
And they knew just what was missing
So happy they were rockin' and reeling
Because they added that lovin' feeling

To California soul, California soul

California soul, hoo
Now it can move you
Really move you
It can groove you, baby
Mmm, yeah
California soul, now, now, now
California soul, yeah
California soul
Satisfaction, darling
I know, will be your only goal
California soul
