Let me take you down south
hear it from the dover's mouth
the rhythm will make you want to move your body
I had it once and never ever forgot it
feel the rhythm of rhapsody
your body moves in raw ecstasy
explosive eruption beyond compare, and

Take my advice don't think twice
let me take you way down south

Step back cuz the funk is here and
the base is kickin' straight to your ear man
because it's like that so don't talk back
and if you do then you're gonna get the back slap
down south, that's an enigma
but to you it's a stupid dumb stigma
that's right it's outta sight

Let me tell you 'bout my baby
she loves me, don't mean maybe
she knows what I think and I don't have to say it
I love her so I don't have to play it
we sit and drink in the sun
I raise my glass and say she's the one
cool breeze light squeeze life

Take my advice don't think twice
let me take you way down south

Step back cuz the funk is here and
the base is kickin' straight in your ear man
because it's like that so don't talk back
and if you do then you're gonna get the back slap
down south, that's an enigma
but to you it's a stupid dumb stigma
that's right it's outta sight

(??)
(??)
psychedelic freak out taco funk frolic
grind fiend roots 'core soul music what have you
psychedelic freak out taco funk frolic
grind fiend roots 'core soul music what have you

Step back cuz the funk is here and
the base is kickin' straight to your ear man
because it's like that so don't talk back
and if you do then you're gonna get the back slap
down south, that's an enigma
but to you it's a stupid dumb stigma
that's right it's outta sight

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
