SIR STEVIE (I WANNA THANK YOU)

(W.Maahn / S.Wonder)

I went up- and was down

Slowly loosing contact with the ground

And one song turned me around

With a funky, groovy message and sound

Heard it once, heard it twice

Bought the record went to soul paradise

And my mind had a great time

Diggin´all your rhythms & rhymes

Dancing all night long ´to the morning sun

Man, it´s perfect company- Man, it´s real fun!

So

I WANNA THANK YOU, I WANNA THANK YOU

I WANNA THANK YOU FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE

I WANNA THANK YOU, I WANNA THANK YOU, STEVIE

I WANNA THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL TIME

I went crazy- felt like healed

From shaky fancies right back to real

You made me crawl out of a black hole-

A funky, bad disciple of soul

Found my system had quite a vacancy:

Soul has got no colour, boy- It´s alive in you and me!

So

I WANNA THANK YOU...

get yourself a ticket when Sir Stevie comes

Share his innervisions, man, and check out a higher ground

So

I WANNA THANK YOU...

Everybody´s born with a dancin´feet

Everyone´s born with a chance to see

Everyone´s a lover of a giant hook

Dancing in the light of your talking book
