Soulville – Jackie Wilson

Placed on top of the mountain
Looking over the sea, yeah yeah
Men grow into giants
Oh, women fine as can be

Where the living is so swell
And free to get your fill
Happiness is yours to enjoy
Down in Soulville
Talkin’ bout-a Soulville

Listen
A place where you don’t need money
There ain’t nothing to buy
No hurry, no worry
No chance for you to drop tears from your eyes

Everybody’s friendly
Every day is a brand new thrill
Hey, hey
When you’re living the good life
Down in Soulville
Talkin’ bout-a Soulville

So go there
There’s nothing you must do
To get there, your heart must be true
But now of course
Life there is alright
If you got somebody by your side
You’re out of sight
In Soulville
Talkin’ bout-a Soulville

Up there
You’re funky, Broadway
Up there
You do the jerk
Talkin’ bout up there
You do what you got to do
And don’t worry
You don’t even have to work
Wait a minute
Up there
Soulville…
