Текст песни: Introducing the Players + перевод

Ladies and gentlemen, the Ohio Players

Sugar, who is a Pisces

The sign of the water

The fish that is strong enough to make it upstream

He’s our guitarist

Listen

Now you can hear a thud

Almost heart-shaking, pounding

That’s our bass player

Mr. Marshall Jones who’s a Capricorn

Mm-hmm, taps nice is a soulful way of saying

You know our drummer’s name is Tim Williams

He’s an Aries

Strong wrists, pulsating drum beats

You can hear them playing at you now

And our saxophone player, there he is

That’s me, my name is Satch and I’m also an Aries

The fire sign

We have a Leo next to me playing trumpet

Who very strongly is playing too

His name is Ralph Middlebrooks

Listen to him play that horn for you

We’d like to team up and do it

Now

Now there’s two more left

Tall statue of a man, his name is Marvin Pierce

And he’s a Cancer, he plays trumpet and trombone

Then there’s Mr. Bruce Napier who’s an Aries

Playing trumpet and French horn

Now that you’ve met the Ohio players

I would like for you to listen

As we join in together to

Listen to

We don’t know how to tell you what our music is about

Because we seem to feel different things as time travels forth

We want you to understand the fact that we play rock, bop, soul, blues

You know, music is a thing that we all need

And we hope you need The Ohio Players enough to listen to their very many styles

We have something on this album we hope will please each other

For openers, we love all people
