Back then my father was a Rick James fan
He would act more like him in the 70s
His friends were the same way when they were kids
When they'd turn on KBLX they'd be jammin

When his cousins thought rick james was a lady
They were ray charles fans back then
They were never into KBLX but KFRC from now
They were the guys that liked the group Beatles

Lets Listen to the Music (2x)

Everybody else liked rap more than classic r&b
They'd have to turn the language off
But these guys in America were the only oldie fans
Rick James were they're type of music

When Soul Train came on they'd get up and funk
Nobody else liked it but us two and three
They said that one day they wanna be like JA RULE
I said that i wanna become a radio fan

Lets Listen to the Music (4x)

What about reggae is it gay or is it cool and good
They wouldn't believe in what it was
I said whats the big idea between reggae and rap
Are they the simular way or the easy way

Everybody else in the neighboorhood would turn it up
They'd go and dance in the city forever
Lets Keep it going on and keep it going strong
Don't let it fool you again,again and again

Lets Listen to the Music (repeat 4x)
