Stage Dialogue by Marvin Gaye Lyrics
[Spoken Interlude]
Ah yeah now now
Yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Ladies and gentlemen
This has been my very first attempt
Coming back to show business on a live stage, four years
I'd like for you to give these fine musicians and singers
A fine round of applause for a job well done
Although it was a struggle
Although it was a struggle for us
I think we—I feel pretty good about it
Because I'm not satisfied in my heart
I'm gonna—I was supposеd to make my exit to this point but I can't go
No, herе's why
We had in mind to do a album for you
Try to do it just like the album we hope that you would enjoy
You can't hear me up in the balcony?
We hope that you would enjoy if we tried to do the album just like you've been listening to it at home
That was our favorite attempt, folks
But me not being satisfied in my heart, I want...
Anything that you heard, that you liked, that you'd like to hear it over...
Hahaha, I'd be very happy to give it my shot
You didn't say the whole thing, I know
No, keep the rhythm going, keep the rhythm going
Well...
I'll tell you, I'd like to just a little bit more of "Inner City Blues" for you before we leave
And after that, we're gonna do "What's Going On" and we're gonna call it a night
Thank you
Gentlemen, "Inner City Blues" please, "Inner City Blues"
Now, one of these days, ha
Thank you so much for bearing with us, ladies and gentlemen
We're gonna try a little "Inner City Blues" for you right here again
Ah yeah now now
Yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah
