MeShell Ndegocello - Im Diggin You (Like An Old Soul Record) Lyrics

Just sit back and. Relax.
Listen to the 8-track
Ill dig you like an old soul record

Remember back in the day
When everyone was black and conscious.
And down for the struggle.
Love brought us all together.
Just sittin back and talkin.
Cultivating a positive vibe.
Blue lights in the basement.
Freedom was at hand and you could just taste it.
Everything was cool. Diggin on me diggin on you.
Everything was cool and brothers were singing
Aint no woman like the one I got

Im diggin you
I dig you like an old soul record.
Just sit back. Relax. Listen to the 8-track.
Ill dig you like an old soul record.

Now brothers (be) base-in.
Running from the beat-down cops that be chasin.
Running out of time. Running out of patience.
In this war of the conscious mind.
I need some black-on-black love.
A slow grind for these changin times (the booty-slammin part!)

Beautiful brown bodies. Pimp, switch and sway.
To the soulful sounds. Gotta get up gotta get down.
Cause you give me good feeling.
You give me good feeling. Yes you do.

Im diggin you
I dig you like an old soul record.
Just sit back. Relax. Listen to the 8-track.
Ill dig you like an old soul record.
