OF COURSE I LISTENED TO THE MUSIC! — AND JUMPED OVER MY OWN
BROOM OF EXCITEMENT! IT’S AMAZING HOW MANY OF US ARTISTS ROAM THIS EARTH WITH THE POWER TO DRIVE THE SPIRIT INTO A NEW
DAY — GLAD THAT OUR PATHS HAVE CROSSED IN HARLEM. AND MAY
OUR PATHS CROSS FOR MO’ YEARS DOWN THE ROAD
‘CAUSE MY SOUL IS ON A ROLL
I MAY BE OLD AND RUSTY BUT I AIN’T COLD,
AND HALF THE STORY OF TRUTH’S WITNESS STILL AIN’T BEEN TOLD.
(Smile)
BOOM!
