Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Soul city
Open your arms to me, right now
Soul city
Open your arms for me, please
Put me down in any town
Where the actions move are swift and tight
Where everybody's whoopsy-daisyin' for days and days
And on into the night
Because that's where I want to be
That's where the folks got a thing for me
So soul city
Open your arms for me, hear me now
Soul city
Just open your arms for me, mmm mmm
It's on my mind all the time
Thinking of parties every Friday night
And I wish I could be on every scene
'Cause I know it would be outta sight
Because that's where I want to be
Because the folks got a thing for me
So soul city
Soul city
Soul
(That's where I want to be)
Because the folks got a thing for me
Now Lucy, you tell Susie
You tell Jimmy to tell Bill
That when they're gettin' down from town to town
If I can make it, you know that I will
Because that's where I want to be
Because the folks got a thing for me
So soul city
Open your arms for me, hear me now
Soul city
Just open up your arms for me, uh huh huh huh
I got to find some place to run (Soul city)
Where I can have myself some fun (Open your arms for me)
I got to find that soulful town
Where everybody's gettin' down (Soul city)
