She can capture your heart,
When they start the music playin'
Sparkle in her eyes,
You better be wise or you will end up lose your mind
I said baby, pretty baby,
Got to get my hands on you
Something’s got a hold on Something’s got a hold on Something’s got a hold on me She was born with it in her soul
Lord she knows how to rock and roll
She’s the answer to poor boy’s dream
Never seen such a sweet young thing
She’s a teaser, love to squeeze her
An actress from a fantasy scene
I said baby, pretty baby
Open your eyes to the truth
She’s got the power, power in her soul
She’s got the power, rock and roll
when they were good. Right when Skunk Baxter started playing guitar as a full-time band member. He was different with Steely Dan ... a gem in both places, nonetheless.
Classic track from the DB along with Rock Me In Your Arms. From a great album where they literally brought out one Masterpiece after another through the 70's. Hard to believe it's 40 years old, still sounds great! Thanks for posting

from the 90's until present day, there will never be any artists or groups that will ever have this kind of experience. this was when u actually had to put the work n to make music that actually meant something.
Another masterful deep cut that defined the band in the mid-70s. For the record, I don't understand why there is so much resentment about the MM era. This video has nothing to do with him and everything to do with Tommy and Billy and the guitar and drum interplay. Who hasn't dated a "Sweet Maxine". Let's focus on the meaning of this song and less on the politics of the Doobie Brothers.
