My band was playing at a club just down the road
  The room was hot and they were dancing' toe to toe
  When in the corner - I saw a lonely face
  Turnin' down the suitors - the music weren't her taste
  
  Play some
  Play something to make me move
  Sing some
  Sing a song let's change the mood
  
  Upon the stage guitar and saxophone
  They kept on wailin' windin' up the song
  The drummer laying right back on the beat
  But still that girl stayed right back on her seat
  
  Play some
  Play something to make me move
  Sing some
  Sing a song to change the mood
  
  Is this what you're saying
  That somehow we're failing
  You speak for us all but tell me how
  It needs all the soul that's
  Deep down inside us
  I hear what you're saying now
  
  I stopped the singing let the band take up the beat
  And fought a passage thru' the crowd up to hear seat
  I took her hands in mine and drew her to the floor
  We'd found the one thing that we'd both been looking for
  
  Play some
  Play something to make me move
  Sing some
  Sing some more you've changed the mood
