[Intro]
There's a soul in the city
Watchin' over us tonight
There's a soul in the city
There's a whole world waitin' out there
Ahh yeah
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
[Chorus]
Bring over some of your old Motown records
We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go
On the roof and listen to the Miracles
Echo through the alley down below, oh yeah
[Verse 1]
Let's dance together just for the night
Let's don't worry about the future or nothing else
'Cause like the music's saying you gotta take chances
Go ahead, just do it and trust yourself
[Pre-Chorus]
There's a soul in the city
Watching over us tonight
There's a soul in the city
Saying everything's gonna be alright
[Chorus]
Bring over some of your old Motown records
We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go
On the roof and listen to the Miracles
Echo through the alley down below, oh yeah
[Verse 2]
They wish us luck but they think we're just dreaming
Let's prove them wrong, baby
'Cause you know what luck is luck is believing you're lucky
That's all and showing just a little bit of faith
[Pre-Chorus]
There's a soul in the city
Watching over us I swear
There's a soul in the city
There's a whole world waiting out there, ah yeah
[Interlude]
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Aw yeah
Listen
[Verse 3]
I got plans for us playing like a skip on a record
Through my head all night long
But when we walk that darkened stairway and step out on the roof
I know what we're feeling can't be wrong, ah yeah
[Chorus]
Bring over some of your old Motown records
We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go
On the roof and listen to the Miracles
Echo through the alley down below, oh yeah
Bring over some of your old Motown records
We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go
On the roof and listen to the Miracles
Echo through the alley down below
[Interlude]
Let the Temptations sing it one time
[Chorus]
Bring over some of your old Motown records
We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go
On the roof and listen to the Miracles
Echo through the alley down below, oh yeah
Bring over some of your old Motown records
We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go
On the roof and listen to the Miracles
Echo through the alley down below, oh yeah
Bring over some of your old Motown records
We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go
On the roof and listen to the Miracles
Echo through the alley down below, oh yeah
