Groovy People Lyrics By Lou Rawls

    groovy people
    i like to be around
    groovy groovy people

    i don’t like nobody that’s got an ego
    i don’t like to sit around and hold a conversation
    with somebody who don’t know where he wants to go

    give me the simple life
    full of fun and joy
    can’t you see i’m just a big ol’ country boy

    and i like groovy people
    i’m talking ’bout
    groovy down home people

    i don’t like nobody that’s got an attitude
    walkin’ ’round with their nose in the air
    them kind of people i just can’t use

    i like to be relaxed
    with my mind at ease
    the best things in life
    is all i want for me

    so give me some groovy people
    i said groovy groovy people
    talkin’ ’bout groovy groovy
    groovy groovy people

    now baby oh darlin’ we don’t have to put up
    with them jivetime folks no more
    let’s pretend that we’re not at ahome
    when they come knockin’ knockin’ on our door

    i don’t like nosy people
    get in my business and things
    i done been through all of that baby
    and i know the bad feelings that it brings

    give me the simple life
    full of fun and joy
    can’t you see i’m just a big ol’ country boy

    and i like groovy people
    i’m talkin’ ’bout a groovy
    down home people
    talkin’ ’bout groovy groovy
    groovy groovy people

    talkin’ ’bout groovy people
    groovy people
    i’m talking about people
    groovy groovy people
    that i can hold a conversation with
    groovy people

    i’m talking about a people
    groovy groovy people
    that ain’t goin’ on no ego trip
    groovy people
    i’m talkin’ about people
    groovy groovy people
    that know how to love one another
    groovy people

    i’m talking ’bout people
    groovy groovy people
    that know how to love their brothers
    groovy people
    talkin’ about people
    groovy groovy people
    who know how to get together
    groovy people

    i’m talkin’ about people
    groovy groovy people
    who know how to brave the stormy weather
    groovy people
