Lyrics

Oh yeah
(Soul heaven)
(Soul heaven)
Had me a dream last night
(Soul heaven)
(Soul heaven)
Last night I dreamed
I was at a concert
So many people
You had to stand in line
One night only
In soul heaven
I didn't wanna wake up
I was having such a good time
All of The Bar Kays
Were tuning up on stage
Jimmy had his guitar
Getting ready to play
Sam was singing
A change gonna come
(Oh, oh-oh-oh)
Otis was there
Sitting on the dock of the bay
There was a party
In soul heaven
Superstars from the past
Standing room only
So you better hurry
Buy your ticket
'Cause they're going fast, yeah
Train and Miles took a mean solo
Junior Walker
Had 'em dancing in the isles
(Shoot em for they run now)
They stood up when Jackie
Sang lonley teardrops
When Sammy danced
The crowd went wild
(Mister Bojangles)
I think I saw Ella
Standing with Mahalia
Backstage with Elvis
With his blue suede shoes
It started raining
Everybody just stayed there
To hear ZZ
Sing the down home blues
Well there's a party
(Soul heaven)
In soul heaven
(Soul heaven)
Superstars from the past
(Soul heaven, soul heaven)
Standing room only
(Soul heaven)
So you better hurry
(Soul heaven)
Buy your ticket
(Soul heaven)
'Cause they're going fast, yeah
(Soul heaven)
There's a party
In soul heaven
Superstars from the past
The great Al Jackson
Was holding down the beat
When Marvin sang Let's Get It On
They jumped to their feet
Everyone started screaming
And gave a standing ovation
When the curtain came up
With the mighty temptations
King Curtis blew
The soul serenade
Thought I saw Lady Day
Sittin' in the shade, yeah
I got two lovers
And I ain't ashamed
Lord, I love the way
Sweet Mary sings
It was getting kinda late
It was time to go
Tupac and Biggie
They closed the show
I didn't wanna wake up
I was having such a good time
Oh, I didn't wanna wake up
I was having a good time
Pearl Bailey
(Soul heaven)
She was there
(Soul heaven)
Duke and Count
(Soul heaven)
They were there
(Soul heaven)
Whoa, Hathaway
(Soul heaven)
I saw him there
(Soul heaven)
Dizzie and Satchmo
(Soul heaven)
I saw 'em there
(Soul heaven)
It was a party
(Soul heaven)
In soul heaven
(Soul heaven)
Oh, you shoulda been there
(Soul heaven)
I know you shoulda been there
(Soul heaven)
Everybody was having such a good time
(Soul heaven, soul heaven)
Oh yeah, oh-whoa-oh
(Soul heaven, soul heaven)
(Soul heaven, soul heaven)
I had such a good time
(Soul heaven)
