Soul Train lyrics

Pickett bought me a ticket When I was just a boy To the land of a thousand dances Stole my mama's pride and joy My hands, they ain't stopped clapping My toes have been tapping ever since that day I've been rocking and rolling To the rhythm of an old soul train I spent all my time and money Daydreaming, spinning 45s Rode the rails right through Philly On to Detroit and down the line When I pulled into Alabama I sat with Otis on the dock of the bay We were rocking and rolling To the rhythm of that old soul train And the train went, ooh-ooh Party's pulling into town, ooh-ooh Best you get up on it now, ooh-ooh Take a ride with me All aboard the old soul train Spent some rainy nights in Georgia Found my thrills up on blueberry hill I heard the gospel through the Grapevine Always has and it always will Make the girls go, ooh-ooh Party's pulling in town, ooh-ooh Best you get up on it now, ooh-ooh Take a ride with me All aboard the old soul train And the train goes, ooh-ooh Party's pulling into town, ooh-ooh Best you get up on it now, ooh-ooh Take a ride with me All aboard the old soul train And the train goes, ooh-ooh Party's pulling into town, ooh-ooh Best you get up on it now, ooh-ooh Take a ride with me All aboard the old soul train I say, all aboard the old soul train I say, all aboard the old soul train Ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh All aboard the old soul train Everybody on the old soul train Ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh All aboard the old soul train
