Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sit back, relax and listen to the 8 track
I dig you like an old soul record
[Verse 2]
Yes I'm diggin' you
Diggin' like an old soul record, baby
[Verse 3]
Just sit back, relax and listen to the 8 track
I dig you like an old soul record
[Verse 4]
Remember back in the day
When everyone was black and conscious
And down for the struggle
Love brought us all together
Just sitting back and talking
Cultivating a positive vibe
Blue lights in the basement
Freedom was at hand and you could just taste it
It was so cool
Diggin' on me diggin' on you
Everything was cool
My brothers were singing
Ain't no woman like the one I got baby
[Verse 5]
Yes I'm diggin' you
Diggin' like an old soul record
[Verse 6]
Just sit back, relax and listen to the 8 track
I dig you like an old soul record
[Verse 7]
Now brothers base in
Running from the beat down cops that be chasin'
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
Slow grind for these changing times
[Verse 8]
Yes I'm diggin' you
Yes I'm diggin' you
Diggin' like an old soul record
[Verse 9]
Beautiful brown bodies
Pimp switch and sway
To the soulful sounds
You gotta get up you gotta get down
Cause you give me good feeling
You give me good feeling yes you do
[Verse 10]
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
[Verse 11]
Come here
[Verse 12]
Just sit back, relax and listen to the 8 track
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, yes I do
[Verse 13]
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
[Verse 14]
Just sit back, relax and listen to the 8 track
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
[Verse 15]
Yes I'm diggin' you
I dig you like an old soul record
[Verse 16]
Yes I'm diggin' you
Yes I'm diggin' you
