The Groove Remains The Same (Mo' Ritmo)

Lyrics

The groove is still the same)
Talkin' 'bout the groove now!
(The groove is still the same)
Everyone got a round, yo!
(The groove is still the same)
Here we go, here we go...
(The groove is still the same)
Yo, I ain't gonna get up and blow!

(One world, one groove)
It don't matter if you lambada
You can do what you gotta
But I'll stick to young and bust a move

(One people, one jam)
We've been dancing all along
To the beat of the same old song
It's why I'm taking a stand!

(One life, one game)
The groove's the same
But they keep changing the names
Are we stepping on someone else's domain?

(All colors, all shades)
There ain't nothing you can play
They didn't slam in the old days
Because of someone else we got it made

(Call it a house or call it street
At the bottom is the beat
And if you wanna get to heaven...
You have got to dance, dance, dance)

(The groove is still the same
Only the faces
Have changed)
The groove makes me the same!
(The groove is still the same
Only the faces
Have changed)

(One me, one you)
The only difference in our music
Is how we decide to use it
We all have our point of view

(One heart, one soul...)
We're the new generation
Show some gratification
Where did it all come from, y'all!

(One world, one stage)
People sing your song
And time will turn the page
But, what's behind the latest rage?

(New Jack, ha! New Swing)
It all goes way back
It's time we all paid back
Yo! Ollie, get up and sing!

(Nah, it's been said and done before
Words are weapons in the war
And if you wanna get to heaven...
You have got to dance, dance, dance)

(The groove is still the same...
Only the faces
Have changed)
The groove remains the same!
(The groove is still the same...
Only the faces...
Have changed...)

(The groove is still the same...
Only the faces...
Have changed...)
The groove remains the same!
(The groove is still the same...
Only the faces...
Have changed...)

(The groove is still the same)
The groove remains the same!
(The groove is still the same)

(The groove is still the same)
The groove remains the same!
(The groove is still the same)

The groove that makes you move
Has been here for a long time
And just because we sample it
They call it a crime
But pay no mind to the debate
I'm here to set the record straight
Let's all pay tribute to the heavy weights

Stevie Wonder's revelation
Has been such an inspiration
This gave the man a lots of fan innovation
(We wanna thank you!)
(Very superstitious!)

James Brown, think about
Let me hear you say: (Ow!)
We got power of souls but on a roll
(We wanna thank you!)

Marvin Gaye, came along
Let us know what's going on?
You've been gold on where's to playing your song
(We wanna thank you!)
(Baby, I heard it through the grapevine!)

You're giant, push, work it out, got down!
Creating sound that still goin' around
(We wanna thank you!)
Funk it out!
(You wouldn't believe how they partied!)

Temptations, they'd rock in the house
They'd carry the funk, the soul and more than crown
(We wanna thank you!)
(Papa, papa was a Rolling Stone!)

Sly & The Family Stone
Everyday people no doubt to be the fat bomb
(We wanna thank you for let me be myself, again!)

(Ah, it's been said and done before
Words are weapons in the war
And if you wanna get to heaven...
You've got to dance, dance, dance)

Mo' ritmo!

(The groove is still the same...
Only the faces
Have changed...)
The groove remains the same!
(The groove is still the same...
Only the faces...
Have changed... oh, my!)

(The groove is still the same...
Only the faces...
Have changed...)
The groove remains the same!
(The groove is still the same...
Only the faces...
Have changed...)
Only the faces change!

(The groove is still the same...
Only the faces
Have changed)
The groove remains the same!
(The groove is still the same...
Only the faces...
Have changed...)
Only the faces change!

(The groove is still the same...
Only the faces...
Have changed...)
The groove remains the same!
