Story Behind The Song

I've always been a big fan of Tower Of Power, nobody does the funk like they do. This is more in their style than Earth, Wind, and Fire but there was no listing for T.O.P., which is a shame, they should be at the top of the list!

Song Description

A song about going for your dreams.

Lyrics

So you need a place where you can see some faces
Maybe go to get your groove on
You got nothin to lose but a case of the blues
Baby better get a move on
Head down the street to the place with the beat
That makes you wanna jump and holler
You gotta hit the bricks and get into the mix
You might want to fix your collar

There's a girl waitin' there she's got strawberry hair
Some shoes that she would die for
She got magical hips, she's luscious of lip
Got some other things you would lie for
Take her out on the floor before she finds the door
Show her just what you're made of
She ain't shy so you better be sly
If you wanna taste the tunnel of love

Out of the blue
You want to play the game have fortune and fame
Better come around to what is true
Out of the blue
Fashion is fine if that's your line
You'll pay up when the rent is due
Out of the blue
Get your back off the wall you can have it all
Really ain't nothin' new
Out of the blue

Nobody wants to be lonely
Nobody wants to be
Lost in the crowd

You can figure it out or you can cast about
And fade away into the dark
Take your shot, be the Sultan of Swat
And hit it right out of the park
It's there for you if you can see it through
And find your way into the sun
It's here or there but you should be aware
Over there nobody's havin' fun
