Soul city, open your arms for me right now
Soul city, open your arms for me
Put me down in any town
Where the action's moving swift and tight
Where everybody's whoopsie-daisying for days and days
And on into the night
Because that's where I wanna be
That's where the folks gotta think for me
So, soul city, open your arms for me
Hear me now
Soul city, just open up your arms for me
It's on my mind all the time
Thinking of parties every Friday night
And I wish I could be on every scene
Cause I know it would be out of sight
Because that's where I wanna be
Because the folks gotta think for me
So, soul city, soul city, soul
Because the folks gotta think for me
Now, you see, you tell Susie
You tell Jimmy, you tell Bill
That when they're getting down from town to town
If I can make it, you know that I will
Because that's where I wanna be
Because the folks gotta think for me
So, soul city, open your arms for me
Hear me now
Soul city, just open up your arms for me
Soul city, soul city, soul
