Soul With A Capital S - Tower Of Power

There's all kinds of music everywhere you go,
Some folks like it fast and some like it slow,
Some like it hot, some like it blue,
Some folks like it old and some like it new.
Now I'm not knockin' country and I'm not rappin' rap,
Big band swing just ain't my thing and alternative ain't my snap.

The only thing that turns me on
Is when I hear a soulful song.

I like soul with a capital "S",
Soul with a capital "S".
Sweet soul music, that's the best,
Soul with a capital "S".

The music makes you happy or it can make you sad,
It can turn the worst day into the best you've ever had.
For entertainment value, if I had to choose,
You and me might disagree because I like rhythm and blues.
Now I'm not dissin' disco, I'm not sayin' punk is bunk,
I can't settle for heavy metal a-'cause I got to have that funk.

The only thing that turns me on
Is when I hear a soulful song.

I like soul with a capital "S",
Soul with a capital "S".
Sweet soul music, that's the best,
Soul with a capital "S".

There's people who'll tell you to get with the times,
It doesn't even matter if your poem rhymes.
But I'm here to tell you whatever comes along
There's something here for everyone, there ain't no right or wrong.
If soft rock makes you lazy, classical leaves you flat,
And fusion drives you crazy, then - snap - funk is where it's at.

The only thing that turns me on
Is when I hear a soulful song.

I like soul with a capital "S",
Soul with a capital "S".
Sweet soul music, that's the best,
Soul with a capital "S".

Ow! I like soul with a capital "S",
Oh, soul with a capital "S",
Sweet soul music, that's the best,
Soul with a capital "S".

Oh, I like soul with a capital "S",
Unh, don't you know I like soul with a capital "S",
You gotta gimme some o' that soul, hah, with a capital "S",
Yes, I like soul with a capital "S".

(With a capital S)

Yo, fellas, sounds like some o' that Oakland soul music,
Y' know what I'm talkin' about?

They done found the stroke,
Done found the Oakland Stroke,
They done found the stroke,
Done found the Oakland Stroke.

Soul with a capital "S",
Oh, gimme some o' that soul with a capital "S",
Oh, I got to have that soul with a capital "S",
(With a capital S) That's what I like,
(With a capital S) Oh, play that music,
(With a capital S)
