 Music is a wo

         
rld with-in it

self,
             
With a languag

              
e we all under

 
-stand.
             
 With an equal

       
 oppor-tunity,
             
For all to sin

              
g, dance, and 

            
clap their ha-


nds.


[Bridge 1]

            
But just be-ca

          
use a record h

    
as a groove,
            
Don't make it 

    
in the groove.
            
But you can te

           
ll right a-way

         
 at letter A,
           
When the peo-p

[Chorus 1]

             
 They can feel

[Verse 2]

             
 Music knows i

         
t is and alway

s will,
             
Be one of the 

              
things that li

              
fe just won't 


quit.
             
 But here are 

              
some of music'

  
s pioneers,
              
That time will

             
 not allow us 

         
to for-get;


[Bridge 2]

            
For there's Ba

          
sie, Miller, S

    
atch-mo,
            
And the King o

        
f all, Sir Duk

e.
            
And with a voi

           
ce like Ella's

       
 ringing out,
            
There's no way

       
 the band can 

  
lose.


[Chorus 2]

             
 You can feel 

        
it all over, y

          
ou can feel it

       
 all over peop

#
le.
