When i saw you, groovy thing
I grew up to my mom singing along to this as she cleaned with a smile on her face everything she looked at me. It was just us in those days. I remember how happy this song made her.
Reminds me of listening to KRLA AM Pasadena/Los Angeles and the Art Laboe Request and Dedications show, nights back in the 70s.
I may be white, but these songs bring out the Chicano hidden inside me!
this is me pilar grant i toke this picture on patti drew cover in red hook project i know you see the bricks i was about 18 years old just learning how to put make up on i was in love .
Helen and Tony Perez Forever! 26 years, 6 kids, and 5 grandchildren later....we still got the hotts for each other! Love you Babe, sweetest lips we've ever tasted!!!!
I was in the studio when Patti recorded this one with Carlton doing the bass and Fontella Bass and Jackie Ross backing her up. Best rendition I ever heard and of course, I'm biased.
When I saw you, I knew
That I was gonna love you
And every day I thought
Of how I'm gonna love you
Now you're here next to me
And ecstasy is a reality
I feel good when you are near
I'm so alive cause you are near
[Chorus:]
Working on a groovy thing, baby
Working on a groovy thing
Working on a groovy thing, baby
Let's not rush it
I wanna take it slow, yeah
Before I met you
I knew my lips were only wasted
Cause you have got the
Sweetest lips I've ever tasted
Music moves us along
Your arms around me
So snug and warm
Happiness is in my soul
I'm about to lose all control
[Chorus:]
Now you're here next to me
And ecstasy is a reality
I feel good when you are near
I'm so alive cause you are near
[Chorus:]
(Said that I'm)
Working on a groovy thing, baby
(Yes, I am now)
Working on a groovy, groovy
Groovy thing
