the soulful shack

Singer:smokey robinson & the miracles

around the corner from my block

there's a place with a private knock

where i know we can really rock

and they open at nine o'clock. most every night

now it's not a place that everybody knows about

but once you get 'em in

it's hard to get 'em out. of the soulful shack

yeah

yeah

now people call it the soulful shack

once inside you'll be dancing back

it knda makes you feel out of whack

baby

in the back you can grab a snack. at any time

now if you don't want to go i can't make you

but if you do want to go i will take you. to the soulful shack

c'mon babe

c'mon everybody.just a soulful shack

oh i wanna ooh ooh

c'mon to the soulful shack

baby don't you want to be included

where the lover's sit is our chandelier

and your privacy is never intruded

because only the in crowd's allowed

only the in crowd's allowed yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

i'd enjoy your company

baby why don't you come with me

oh how happy you could be?
