Posted May 19, 20195 yr Northern Soul. How I love Northern soul Now I’ve got the bug It’s more than music for me It’s part of my history And in my blood Happy music to often sad lyrics Of love and romance Always a great beat and rhyme That wants to make you dance Dance halls full of lovely people Out for a good time The atmosphere electric And sublime Soul boys and soul girls Now mostly getting on in life Reminiscing about Alldayers and Allnighters And the wonderful records that they had Vinyl on the turntables Talcum powder on the floor Spins and backflips I can’t do any more Although spirit willing My polyvelds too tight And feet are getting sore I’d wear my baggy trousers with twenty pockets But they don’t fit any more Music like ours will never die As long as it remains in our hearts While our bodies may fall apart Above all Keep the faith.

Northern Soul.
How I love Northern soul
Now I’ve got the bug
It’s more than music for me
It’s part of my history
And in my blood
Happy music to often sad lyrics
Of love and romance
Always a great beat and rhyme
That wants to make you dance
Dance halls full of lovely people
Out for a good time
The atmosphere electric
And sublime
Soul boys and soul girls
Now mostly getting on in life
Reminiscing about Alldayers and Allnighters
And the wonderful records that they had
Vinyl on the turntables
Talcum powder on the floor
Spins and backflips
I can’t do any more
Although spirit willing
My polyvelds too tight
And feet are getting sore
I’d wear my baggy trousers with twenty pockets
But they don’t fit any more
Music like ours will never die
As long as it remains in our hearts
While our bodies may fall apart
Above all
Keep the faith.
