The Lyrics
Hey, soul sister
Ain’t that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo
The way you move ain’t fair you know
Hey, soul sister
I don’t wanna miss a single thing you do tonight
The way you can cut a rug
Watching you is the only drug I need
So gangster, I’m so thug
You’re the only one I’m dreaming of
You see, I can be myself with you
I can hold my own, know where I’m going
Don’t need a map with you, hey Soul Sister™
I can dance on my own, I don’t need your hands all over me
Dance, dance,…
