motown Lyrics


Be nice just like Smokey Robinson
Fall like the tears of a clown
Sometimes I wish I was in Detroit
The home of Motown
Singin under a streetlight
Man I hear the coolest sounds
I'm on a roof or under the boardwalk
That's where rock and roll was foundSam Cooke the sounds of a chain gang
Marvin Gaye let's get it on
Odis Redding Wilson Pickett Y'all the list goes on
Martha and the Vandellas
The O'Jays got that cool rocking sound
Hanging out at the Apollo Theater
Gladys took a midnight train to Georgia
And did Diana and the Supremes
Do run, run, run around
Wait up wait a minute Mr. Postman
Won't you check your bag for the letter you found

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Motown Records, also known as Tamla-Motown outside of the United States, is a record label originally based out of Detroit, Michigan ("Motor City", hence mo(tor)town), from where it achieved widespread international success. Motown played an important role in the racial integration of popular music as the first record label owned by an African American and primarily featuring African American artists to regularly achieve crossover success and have a widespread, lasting effect on the music industry.
