YOU AND I
(Rick James / Art Stewart)

Rick James


You and I
We fit together like a glove on hand
That's right
Don't you know
That I would gladly take you anywhere
You wanted to go

You and me
We are as close as three-part harmony
Wouldn't you agree
And if by chance
Our romance ended it would surely be
The end of me

Some people might say I'm infatuated 
But I don't care 
'Cause they really don't know 
They'll never see of hear 
The things I do with you 
So far as I'm concerned 
They all can go to hell 

Woe, baby yeah
Now sing it, sugar
Do-do-do (etc.)

You and I
We'll be together til the six is nine
That's right
When you need me
I never hesitate, I always come
It's so much fun, yeah

You and I
Although we're poor
Our love has greater wealth
Than Hughes himself
And if by chance
There is an afterlife when we die
Hope it's with you and I

Repeat I

Sing it do, do, do (etc)

You and I 
You and me 
We'll be together eternally 

Everybody on the funk
Everybody dance on the funk
Dance on the funk
Everybody dance on the funk
Can you sing it on time
Everybody dance on the funk
Everybody dance on the funk

Everybody shake your body down
Everybody shake your body down
Everybody dance on the funk
Everybody dance on the funk
Dance and shout
Funk yourself right out
Funk yourself right out
Funk yourself right out

We laid this groove
So you can move
On the funk
Everybody dance on the funk
Everybody dance on the funk
Everybody dance on the funk

Everybody dance on the funk
Everybody dance on the funk
Everybody shake your body down
Everybody shake your body down
