Yeah Man - Sam Cooke

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
Crazy 'bout music
Any old music
Yeah, yeah
Do you like all the dances
You crazy 'bout the dances

As long as they are swinging
What, what
Let's try some others dances
I don't know which one
Let's try to do the monkey
All right, yeah

Do you like all the dances
I'm crazy 'bout the dances
Let's try a new dance
Let's try the watutsi
I love to do the tutsi
Put the twist with the tutsi

Let's try a new dance
Dig what I tell you
Got to do what I tell you

You're on a football field
You're down in the huddle
Run for that touchdown
You're on a baseball field now
Your bat's in your hand now
Swing for that homerun

You're in the middle of an ocean
Ship had gone done now
Swim our life now
Swim, swim, got to go
I'm going home
