Sit back, relax
And listen to the 8-track
I dig you like an old soul record

Yes, I'm diggin' you
I dig you like an old soul record baby
Just sit back relax listen to the 8-track

Remember back in the day
When everyone was black and conscious
And down for the struggle
Love brought us all together
Sittin' back and talkin'
Cultivating a positive vibe
Blue lights in the basement
Freedom was at hand and you could just taste it
It was so was cool 
Diggin' on me, diggin' on you
Everything was cool, yeah yeah
My brothers were sayin'
"Ain't no woman like the one I got, baby baby"
Yes, I'm diggin' you
I dig you like an old soul record

Just sit back, relax and listen to the 8-track
I dig you like an old soul record
Now brothers base-in
Running from the beat-down cops that be chasin'
I'm running out of time, I'm running out of patience
In this war of the conscious mind
I need some black-on-black love, baby yeah
Slow grind for these changin' times

Yes, I'm diggin' you
Yes, I'm diggin' you
Dig you like an old soul record

Beautiful brown bodies pimp, switch and sway
To the soulful sounds, you gotta get up, you gotta get down
'Cause it gives you good feeling
You give me good feeling, yes you do, yes you do

Yes, I'm diggin' you
I dig you like an old soul record
Yes, I'm diggin' you
I dig you like an old soul record
