I am soul, baby, just lend an ear

To my voice, so hush now darling

And get swept away, far away,

By my melodious tunes from afar.

I am gold, maybe tarnished and old

But I still sound as sweet as honey

And as moving as a flowing river.

Just feel the beat that I produce

Sound winding up, twirling 'round

Let me tell y'all a story, darling

That hasn't got any words.
