Lyrics

Rudie got soul
Rudie got soul
Now, 'cause when I sing my song
You've got to move along
Because Rudie got, Rudie got soul
Rudie got soul
(Rudie got soul)
Rudie got soul now, right now
(Rudie got soul)
'Cause when I sing my song
You've got to move along
Because Rudie got, Rudie got soul
Rudie got soul
(Rudie got soul)
Rudie got soul, right now
(Rudie got soul)
'Cause when I sing my song
You've got to move along
Because Rudie got, Rudie got soul
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm
Mm-hmm, Rudie got soul
Rudie got soul right now
'Cause when I sing my song
You've got to move along
Because Rudie got, Rudie got soul
Rudie got soul
(Rudie got soul)
Rudie got soul right now
(Rudie got soul)
'Cause when I sing my song
You've got to move along
Because Rudie got, Rudie got soul
Rudie got soul right now
(Rudie got soul)
Rudie got soul now, oh-oh
(Rudie got soul)
Mmm, 'cause when I sing my song
You've got to move along
Because Rudie got, Rudie got soul
I need to find soul, mm-hmm
(Rudie got soul)
A dancing soul, oh no
(Rudie got soul)
'Cause when I sing my song
You've got to move along
Because Rudie got, Rudie got soul
