Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't you feel it growin' day by day?
People gettin' ready for the news
Some are happy, some are sad
Oh, we got to let the music play (Mmm)
[Verse 2]
What the people need is a way to make 'em smile
It ain't so hard to do if you know how
Gotta get a message
Get it on through
Oh, now Mama's gon' to after 'while
[Chorus]
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
All the time
[Verse 3]
Well, I know you know better
Everything I say
Meet me in the country for a day
We'll be happy
And we'll dance
Oh, we're gonna dance our blues away
[Verse 4]
And if I'm feelin' good to you and you're feelin' good to me
There ain't nothin' we can't do or say
Feelin' good, feeling fine
Oh, baby, let the music play
[Chorus]
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
All the time
[Bridge]
Like a lazy flowing river
Surrounding castles in the sky
And the crowd is growing bigger
Listenin' for the happy sounds and I got to let them fly
[Chorus]
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
All the time
[Chorus]
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
All the time
[Chorus]
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
All the time
[Chorus]
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
All the time
[Chorus]
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
All the time
[Chorus]
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
Whoa, oh, listen to the music
All the time
