Written by: Arthur Conley, Otis Redding
Originally written by: Sam Cooke
Adapted from: Yeah Man written by Sam Cooke
Comments: Athur Conley just wanted to cover "Yeah Man", but when he sat down with Otis Redding, Otis decided to change the lyrics and retitle the song. Although the music is basicly the same as "Yeah Man", Sam Cooke wasn't credited as composer. He wasn't even mentioned in the new lyrics which paid tribute to many soul legends, including Otis Redding himself

Lyrics:
Do you like good music
That sweet soul music
Just as long as it's swingin'
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Way out here on the floor, ya'll
We're going to a go go
Ah dancin to the music
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Spotlight on Lou Rawls, y'all
Ah don't he look tall, y'all
Singin' "Love's a Hurtin' Thing" now
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Spotlight on Sam and Dave now
Ah don't they look boss, y'all
Singin' "Hold On, I'm Comin'"
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Spotlight on Wilson Pickett now
That wicked, wicked Pickett
Singin' "Mustang Sally"
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Spotlight on Otis Redding now
Singing "Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa"
"Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa"
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Get in on this
Spotlight on James Brown now
He's the king of them all, yeah
He's the king of them all, yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
I got to get the feelin'
(Dance girls)
I got to get the feelin'
(Dance girls)
Do ya like good music?
(Dance girl)
That sweet soul music
(Yeah yeah)
Helps me get the feelin'
(Dance girl)
I want to get the feelin'
(Dance band)
Otis Redding's got the feelin'
