Текст песни: Revival! + перевод

Some may be shallow and some may be deeper and

Deeper my brother

Man sits with pan and scans the land for what he can

Hopin' that he might strike gold

Wading in the water, in search of the soul

To find what you seek, the valleys and the peaks

Open up your ears to the grooves and beats and be

Complete

Now the water’s deep

You see dancin' and rejoicin' now people make some noise

And

Dive into the water let it splash across your face

Don’t you stop the party and don’t you lose your faith

Keep it goin' on and movin' on son

Converge upon your urge and be submerged

In the funk

We all come to the river because the water brings

Growth

Let the Lord provide it baby can you stroke

The style in the south of the union: Good food and good

Jams is our communiuon

Down at the river the soul is wet

Take a dip and revive yourself

Revival! Revival!

Get into the water boy we’re havin' a revival

If you don’t learn to groove then tell me what is your

Survival chances

Dances

The fellowship is dope

If the water is to shallow then gallows and ropes await

Me

I got to keep on movin' upstream

It’s where the party’s at it’s the baptism and the swing a

Brotha man’s dream

The rythem must be phat

Now tell me what is wrong with that it makes the people

Say

Psychoalphadiscobeta

Brotha man you got to take a dip into the water

Psychoalphadiscobeta

Sista girl you too can take a dip into the water

Psychoalphadiscobetabioaquadooloop my troop we can

Take it strong to the hoop

An old style Revival! the traditions respected

Old ladies putting up a finger as they exit you guessed it

It’s gonna bring you closer to the self

The power of the river if you can hold your breath

And see the reality of spirtuality

Positive Individuality

Hear me now we wade and splash and love and laugh

And seek and greet

And walk the path of the rhythm we’re with them

The river is flowin'

So we gonna keep this Revival! goin'

Revival! Revival!

We have gathered here today to cleanse our minds and

Wash the B.S. away

To gain strength for another day

To get into the river I figure the music must

Play to make the crowd sway throw ho’s and hey’s and

Shake out booty’s

Our duty is to be here to stay

Because people we are in it for survival

So won’t you come and join me at the river at the Revival

I see little children eatin' watermelon and elderly storytellin'

Ruffnecks scrappin' and yellin'

Deacons and preachin' and Hip Hop beats and

Funky aquaboogie we could be achieving groovy salvation

The soul is in the house everyone’s dancin' and hangin'

Out

Brotha’s clockin' bank but we got to have the wisdom

To make it through the eye of the needle

And when I make it through I will be dancin' and singin'

And rejoicin' and voicin'

My opinion dominion over all on the earth

Baby work

The brothers came first

Africa the birth

And if we cannot do it on the Nile then we’ll go to the

Missippippi

Down to Memphis, Tennessesee, we’ll travel like a gypsy

And don’t worry about the neighbors callin' Five-O

Nobody’s gonna stop this Revival!

Revival! Revival!
