[Intro – All]
Ooh-wah, ooh-wah
Shoo-doo-wah, shoo-doo-wah
Mm-mm, yeah…
[Verse 1 – Lead]
Down on the corner of a Detroit street,
Four young hearts and a dream so sweet.
No gold, no fame, just voices and time,
Chasing a sound that would change their lives.
[Harmony – Others]
Ooh-ooh, they believed
Ahh-ahh, in harmony
[Pre-Chorus – Lead + Harmony]
From smoky rooms to the Motown light,
Every note was a step toward the night.
[Chorus – All]
Oh, listen to the story they sang,
Love and pain in every line.
Through the years, through the joy and tears,
Those songs still live in time.
Yeah, they fell, they rose again,
But the music never ends.
This is a tribute, from heart to soul,
To the Temptations, my friends.
[Verse 2 – Second Lead]
They sang of love that slipped away,
Of broken hearts and words you couldn’t say.
Silky moves, matching suits,
Every step told the truth.
[Harmony – Others]
Shoo-doo-wah, shoo-doo-wah
Ooh-yeah, hear them now
[Bridge – Spoken/Sung Lead]
Time changed faces, time changed names,
But the sound stayed just the same.
Through every loss, through every gain,
They turned real life into a refrain.
[Harmony – Soft]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Mm-mm-mm
[Chorus – All]
Oh, listen to the story they sang,
Love and pain in every line.
Through the years, through the joy and tears,
Those songs still live in time.
Yeah, they fell, they rose again,
But the music never ends.
This is a tribute, from heart to soul,
To the Temptations, my friends.
[Outro – All]
Ooh-wah, ooh-wah
Legends never fade away
Shoo-doo-wah, shoo-doo-wah
Their harmony still guides the way…
Fade out on harmonies
The RoAn Tigers music Love peace out out out
