Ronnie Love - Detroit, Michigan (mp3)
Detroit, Michigan
Talking 'bout Girls, Girls, Girls
We got 'em. Detroit, Michigan
Talking 'bout Fine, Fine Girls
We got 'em. Detroit, Michigan
Wearing tight skirts above their knees
The kind of girls that know how to please
The kind of girls that look so good
The kind that ought to be in Hollywood
Talking bout Soul, Soul, Soul
We got it. Detroit, Michigan
Talking about a Soul, Soul groove
We got it. Detroit, Michigan
When you hear our smash hit song
The music starts you dancing and you can't sit down
We got a kind of bluesy groove
The kind that makes you want to move
You've heard about Marvin Gay
We got him. Detroit, Michigan
You've heard about Hitsville USA
We got it. Detroit, Michigan
We got those Fine, Fine, Super Supremes
The kind of girls you see in your dreams
When you hear our thunderous sound
You know it came from Detroit town
Talking 'bout Mary Wells, we sent her. Detroit, Michigan
Talking 'bout Henry Ford, the inventor. Detroit, Michigan
Talking 'bout Soupy Sales, the joker. Detroit, Michigan
Talking 'bout Miracles--With Smokey!
Going out there to see the Gories and Oblivians! Lookin' forward to meeting the girls that know how to please!

For the record, Soupy Sales is actually from Franklinton, North Carolina...

But he rose to fame in Detroit!
I think you left out a line at the end, Debbie:
TALKIN' 'BOUT MIRACLES--WITH SMOKEY!

Detroit is over-rated. I know. I'm from Detroit and I'm over-rated.

This jam was on the mix CD I created on 8/8/08. Ahh, such nostalgic memories.
