Racetrack in France

On a racetrack in France
Everybody got to clapping their hands
Seemed like a long way from Union Station
On a racetrack in France
Everybody started to dance
I was a long way from
Home with those good vibrations hey!

Moving nice and easy

Heard I needed to travel
"Go out and spread the word now" people say
Yeah, so I'm kicking up dust and gravel
On a racetrack near Marseilles
If it all sound like a mystery
Things that you just don't understand
Well, let me give you a little bit of history
About me and the Midnight Band

On a racetrack in France
Everybody got to clapping their hands
It seemed like a long way from Union Station
On a racetrack in France
Everybody started to dance
I was a long way from
Home with those good vibrations
I said, "Hey!"

Très Bien my chérie d'amour, comment ça va?
No

Me and them bothers no parlez-vous
French was way down on my list
The Africans said, "Merci beaucoup"
Because the rhythm's what they missed
People got the message
From the music that we play
It really shouldn't have been no surprise
That we all got down that day

On a racetrack in France
Everybody got to clapping their hands
Seemed like a long way from Union Station
On a racetrack in France
Everybody started to dance
I was a long way from
Home with those good vibrations
I said, "Hey!"

Yeah, I heard I needed to travel
"Well, go out and spread the
Word now" people say
Got me kicking up dust and gravel
On a racetrack near Marseilles
If it all sound like a mystery
Things that you just don't understand
Let me give you a little bit of history
I'm talking ‘bout me and the Midnight Band

On a racetrack in France
Everybody got to clapping their hands
It seemed like a long way from
Union Station where I'm coming from
On a racetrack in France
Everybody started to dance
I was a long way from
Home and good vibration love
On a racetrack in France
Everybody started clapping their hands
Seemed like a long way, a long way
A long way on a racetrack in France
Everybody started to dance
I was a long way from home and good vibration
Made me say, "Hey!"
