From the recording Then & Now
Some kind of weird pop? Latin funk groove. I dig it.
Lyrics
It was down in the southern land
I saw her dancing in the sand
Everybody was grooving’ with the sick jive
The band was into some heavy shit
Deep in rhumba sleeping’ samba
Creepin’ Moties I love you
Hold on look at me little girl
I’m looking at you
Everybody was watching from the shoreline
All the men folk were going “awooga awooga”
Some lady folks too
She’e slippery
Like a watermelon seed
Awhoo she sho’nuf is slippery
She’s got everything I need
Creepin’ into my dreams when I sleep in the night
This little girl has got me wrapped up real tight
I don’t know her name or who she is
But she’s got me messed up like nobody’s beeswax
She’s so fine I think I’m losing my grip
Sometimes I’m walking down the road
I get all messed up and I forget where I’m going
This ain’t nothing like anything I’d ever known
When I see her my trash starts overflowing
It was down in the southern land
I saw her dancing in the sand
Everybody was rockin’ and a rollin’
The band was into some heavy shit
Deep in rhumba sleeping’ samba
Creepin’ Moties I love you
Hold on look at me little girl
I’m looking at you
It was all messed up
It was all messed up
