On The Beat - Brooklyn, Bronx, and Queens Band 1981

*****************{Lyrics}*****************

[Verse 1]
How's about your company this evening?
(Oh, would you say that you are free?)
Take you out somewhere really special
(Oh, won't you come along with me?)
From what I've heard them say, the music that they play
Is nothing like you ever heard before
Once you get through dancing, you can't stop your feet
'Cause the rhythm keeps in time, what you say now?

[Chorus]
Are you ready or not? It's only up the street
Everybody's dancing, and everybody's on the beat
I'm a-beggin' you now, it's where we both could be
Everybody's dancing, and everybody's on the beat
Are you ready or not? It's only up the street
Everybody's dancing, and everybody's on the beat

[Verse 2]
Say that you accept this invitation
(Oh, won't you say you'll come along?)
Music can give lovers inspiration
(It's just the place where we belong)
Nobody has a care when there's music in the air
It's nothing like you ever seen before
People dancing all night long
Won't you say you got the time, wanna go there

[Chorus]
Are you ready or not? It's only up the street
Everybody's dancing, and everybody's on the beat
I'm a-beggin' you now, it's where we both could be
Everybody's dancing, and everybody's on the beat

[Bridge]
What you say, you and I should go together
(What you say) It's for everyone to see
What you say, do you want to come along with me?

[Instrumental Break]

Huh

[Instrumental Break]

Are you ready or not?
I'm a-beggin' you now
Are you ready or not? It's only up the street
I'm a-beggin' you now, it's where we both could be

[Verse 1]
How's about your company this evening?
(Oh, would you say that you are free?)
Take you out somewhere really special
(Oh, won't you come along with me?)
From what I've heard them say, the music that they play

'Cause the rhythm keeps in time, what you say now?

[Chorus]

Everybody's dancing, and everybody's on the beat
I'm a-beggin' you now, it's where we both could be
Everybody's dancing, and everybody's on the beat
Are you ready or not? It's only up the street
Everybody's dancing, and everybody's on the beat
Are you ready or not? It's only up the street
Everybody's dancing, and everybody's on the beat
I'm a-beggin' you now, it's where we both could be
Everybody's dancing, and everybody's on the beat

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

Everybody's dancing, and everybody's on the beat

Everybody's dancing, and everybody's on the beat

ksam my friend, the bass part is kind of improvised. I've learned it, but I have to master it. I'd just like to ask if you could mute the bass part you have, since it's kind of in my way, and it gets a little hard to play with that. I'll also try something more grounded, rather than playing all over the place like the original, if you like. :)

Hi Guizubao, no problem my friend the bass track is muted I also increased the sound of the backing track to 50%, let me know if it's ok, for your track if it's not exactly like the original it doesn't matter, the most important thing is that it fits well with the other instruments, thank you my friend.

@ftFonz : Oops!! sorry Fons I didn't see your comment I didn't receive a notification, the trumpet and bass are missing, for the trumpet I think Owens will join us, for the bass I can't find anyone, I invited a few bass players unfortunately they all declined because the bass line is too complicated.
