Somethin`s Goin` On Lyrics

Somethin`s Goin` On lyrics

(Al Kooper) 

You know I woke up this mornin' people 

the first thing I did was to look into your eyes 

and in that space where I used to find so much truthfulness 

there was a stone cold pack of lies 



You know that somethin' goin' on 

Somethin' goin' on but I don't know what it is 

Somethin's goin' on people 

All right 



I went on down to the mailbox 

seems I got the phone bill yesterday 

charging me for some hour conversation 

from someone in L.A.! 



I know there’s somethin' goin' on 

Somethin' goin' on, 

but I don’t know what it is.

Somethin' goin' on, behind my back 

I better get to the bottom of this



(Long Solos) 



Now wait a minute! 

I wanna hear you blow now 

(Sax solo with counterpoint by Kooper) 

Go ahead, go ahead 

I want you to blow for all the men whose women who don't keep a true love now


I want you to blow for all the people who have to face an empty bed now 

Go ahead, blow one for yourself 

Blow one for me too 

Yeah, listen 

You got to love your woman in the morning 

You got to love your woman every night 

You got to love your woman all the time, and make her feel all right 

You got to give her what she wants 

When she wants it, how she wants it, and anytime she might think she wants it


ahhhhhhhhhhh 

When your lovin' your woman people 

Both you know the score 

You know it makes a long-time man suspicious 

To come home, to an unlocked door 

Your bound to know, somethin' goin' on 

Somethin' goin' on, but you don't know what it is 

Somethin' goin' on people 

I better get to the bottom of this, look out! 

(Al Screams for a while until fade)
