Celebrate Lyrics


Ladies and gentlemen
The Preacher’s son
Patti LaBelle is in the buildin’
Let’s celebrate, have a basement party
A barbeque, how we used to do
On the avenue, have a Philly
Man, how I miss those days
When the kids was kids, no knives on the street
When the ice cream man came around the way, Lord
Miss Patti, won’t you help me sing
Lord, knows how I miss those days
Dressin’ up for church on Easter Sunday
Doing the Electric Slide at every party
If only you knew what I’ve been through
You would celebrate, get up, you would celebrate
I came in this game through the back door
I know Labelle, we were so much more
We worked and earned it, God knows we deserved it

Keep on striving I know you’ll make it
Let’s celebrate, have a basement party
A barbeque, how we used to do
On the avenue, have a Philly
Man, how I miss those days
When the kids was kids, no knives on the street
When the ice cream man came around the way, Lord
Miss Patti, won’t you help me sing
Lord, knows how I miss those days
Dressin’ up for church on Easter Sunday
Doing the Electric Slide at every party
If only you knew what I’ve been through
You would celebrate, fet up, you would celebrate
Get up, I’m gon’ box these niggas
Take home on a number one belt
We gonna pop that thug oh no, to celebrate that wealth
See, I’mma take that hey and turn it into loot
‘Cause whoever got blessed no man can test
Whoever got blessed no man can test
What goes up must surely come down, yes
So watch who you hurt on your way up
‘Cause they’ll be laughin’ at you on your way down
Tell the judge we don’t want incarceration
‘Cause we came for the celebration
So let the women and the children eat first
‘Cause it’s been so long since a celebration
(Cassidy)
This Cassidy, let’s celebrate
I’m sellin’ weed and got hella cake
And I still got the thug in my back pock’
It’s hamburgers, hot dogs in the back row
On the grill we cookin’ it all up
My mom got skills, she hookin’ it all up
Man, it feels like back in the days
When cats wasn’t clappin’ to Ks
And hoodrats was actin’ they age
Clef and the rest of the gang with me
And me and Miss LaBelle we rap the same city
Philly, home of the blunts and the cheese steaks
And I cannot be stopped like I need the breaks
Let’s celebrate, have a basement party
A barbeque, how we used to do
On the avenue, have a Philly
Man, how I miss those days
When the kids was kids, no knives on the street
When the ice cream man came around the way
Lord, Miss Patti, won’t you help me sing
Lord knows how I miss those days
Dressin’ up for church on Easter Sunday
Doing the Electric Slide at every party
If only you knew what I’ve been through
You would celebrate, be okay, yeah
Get up, you would celebrate
Get up, you would celebrate
Get up

100 Proof Southern Rock, played the way it was meant to be....dripping with Jack Daniels and BBQ Sauce!

The Sam Morrison Band is on a mission. Tired of all the corporate, “politically correct” processed music that is being spoon fed to the public, The Sam Morrison Band is determined to bring back something that is lost on today’s radio……real music. Imagine that; real musicians, playing real songs, with real instruments for real people. No drum loops, no DJ’s, just 100 proof Rock and Roll.

Steeped in the Southern Rock tradition of bands such as Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Allman Brothers, The Sam Morrison Band is proud to carry on the message of true American values. Themes such as pride in God, Country, and the American Dream run throughout their music.

The two things you’re not supposed to talk about in polite company are “religion and politics”. On their new CD, “Dig It Or Don’t”, the Sam Morrison Band tackles both head on!

Political Correctness has no place here. Covering everything from Gun Control to The US Military to Baseball Rulings and everything in between, the SMB pulls no punches. The love of God, Country, and the American way of life, run rampant thru the lyrics.

This is a CD Charlie Daniels and Ted Nugent would be Proud of!

Musically it’s all about “100 Proof Southern Rock…dripping with BBQ Sauce”. Boasting a new Three Guitar Line Up the guys are carrying on in the tradition of Lynyrd Skynyrd and Molly Hatchet.
In a time where pop music has all but forgotten the art of the guitar solo, the SMB is more than happy to “show y’all how it’s done!”

Willie Nelson said once “Don’t write a song if you’ve got nothing to say”. “Well we took that to heart”, says Morrison. “We’ve covered a lot of topics that mean a lot to us as a band. Whether you agree with us or not, we’re proud of our stance and we ain’t changing!”

So set back, crank it up loud and Dig It …Or Don’t!

Real Songs, Real Music……………The Sam Morrison Band!

They have had the opportunity to play with many of today's biggest stars including: Lynyrd Skynyrd, 38 Special, Marshall Tucker, Diamond Rio, Confederate Railroad. Their debut single, "I Gotta Ride" is quickly becoming a new "Biker Classic"!

The SMB spends most of their time on the west coast, however they have completed successful tours not only in Europe but in the Far East as well.

This band is amazing! Not only do they have their own great music but they play Lynyrd Skynyrd, Allmann Bros, Molly Hatchett, etc...like nobodys business and they do a Bob Seger Tribute that is out of this world! They are a wonderful group of extremely talented people who love what they do!
You can see and hear them on MYSPACE and YOU TUBE...here's a bit from their page:
