the bacon brothers - philly thing lyrics

[verse 1: kevin bacon]
what’s that thing you feel when the drums are feeling funky
what’s that makes you move when the guitars get all chunky
and the bass hits down below you and you know you gotta get up there and swing
truth be told
it’s a philly thing
that’s a philly thing

[verse 2: kevin bacon]
you can’t quite place the way i speak
but you know that it sounds wrong
that might be cause you don’t know
the true meaning of jawn
or why we keep this bell around this old town when that bell don’t even ring
truth be told
it’s a philly thing
that’s a philly thing
[bridge 1: kevin bacon]
smokin’ joe, touch of class
just like teddy pendergrass

[verse 3: kevin bacon]
you ask me why sometimes i don’t think before i speak
you ask me why i’ve never learned to look before i leap
or why there’s water in my eye every time i hear the stylistics sing
truth be told
it’s a philly thing
that’s a philly thing

[bridge 2: kevin bacon, naheim g+ymon+hill]
one part heaven, one part h+ll
one heart rides the frankford el
with the eagles, sixers, phillies and the flyers
out with my friends, so you’re pulling all+nighters
schuylk!ll river’s got the boats
all the girls love hall and oates
there it is, my very spot
they know how i love my wings, buffalo hot
water ice is tasting sweeter
than the geator with the heater

it’s a philly thing
yeah, it’s a philly thing
[verse 4: kevin bacon]
so if you start to feel it when the drums are feeling funky
and if you start to move it when the guitars get all chunky
if that bass hits down below you and you know you gotta get up there and swing
truth be told
it’s a philly thing
that’s a philly thing
now you know
it’s a philly thing

[outro: kevin bacon]
i can smell the minute steaks
and i can taste your tastykakes
coltrane, labelle, jill scott, the roots
boyz ii men in matching suits
if that wasn’t quite enough
thom bell, kenny gamble, leon huff
hometown of chubby checker
d+ck clark and a bunch of quakers
things you can’t learn in the apple
like what the h+ll goes into scr+pple
