Lyrics
Occapella
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's music in the streets
There's music everywhere
A little old soul beat
There's dancing everywhere
I would tell the whole world
Tell them if I could
To add a little song into each life
It's finger snappin' good
Pardon me, but you could use it
We're goin' to make a little music
You got soul now don't you lose it
We're goin' to make a little music
Everything's going to be mellow
People just a singin' occapella
People just a singin' occapella
There's music in the street
There's muisc in the air
A little old soul beat
There's dancin' everywhere
I would tell the whole world
Tell them if I could
To add a little song into each life
It's finger snappin' good
