Funkadelic - Smokey Lyrics






Mmm-hmm, looking back at you

Looking back at you
I've lost a lot
You've got a lot
Miss you a lot
I miss you
[x2]

A-ha-ha-hey, Smokey, when I speak your name
Ah, Smokey, you do something to my brain
Hey, Smokey, I'm like a dog on your chain
Smokey baby, you got me singing this sweet refrain

Looking back at you
I've lost a lot
You've got a lot
Miss you a lot
I miss you
[x2]

Hold on, Smokey, baby, I love you
Hold on, Smokey, baby, I can feel you go
Ah, hold on, Smokey baby
Smokey baby, you got me playing this sweet refrain

Smokey baby, you got me playing this sweet refrain

Looking back at you
I've lost a lot
You've got a lot
Miss you a lot
Whoa-whoa-whoa whoa whoa-whoa
[x15]

    I wish I had the power that the Messiah gave to his son, I would raise Glen from the grave!! That brother was just getting started and he died too soon!!

  5. r.... p....

    I remember coming down from a trip and while listening to this those pfunk voices took me to a giant mountain of music, artwork, money, women, Instruments, players all piled up like a giant hot fudge sundae with George Clinton sitting on top like a cherry....yeah...I can dig it

    r.... p....

    Groovy!!!!

  6. E.... B....

    funk be evolve; shine your flashlights in the air tonight.

    US Funk Mob unleashed!

  12. l.... s....

    I do not believe this was written... I think Clinton and his band of zombies lit one , sipped some, then closed their eyes and picked up the instruments. One sane person in another room pressed "record", and the rest is funk history.

  13. T.... W....

  34. B.... Q....

    gospel inspired funk ??

    B.... Q....

    Goins lifting his spirits!

    B.... Q....

    Mainly *FUNK doesn't exist without JAZZ* = remember that James Brown himself was a huge fan of Duke Ellington and he recruited by 1964/1965 to Jazz trained musicians like Alfred 'Pee Wee' Elis, the Parker Brothers (Melvin and Maceo), Fred Wesley among others. Standard Rock have more basis on composition for 8/8 notes instead Jazz and Funk *shared 16th notes* (along others afroamerican styles like Cuban and Brasilian music).

  35. C.... E....

    big foot killing those drums

  36. B.... T....

    bread and butter funk; you gotta have it...

  37. C.... E....

    Bernie killed it on synthetic bass and Glen kills with the vocals

    C.... E....

    Chris Edwards Bernie.
    on synth bass Check. Glenn killing it on vocals Check.😂😂😂

  38. K.... G....

    Glenn Goins is a master magician with the vocals!

    K.... G....

    Ka'sette Goins no shit. I love his vocals. Miss him dearly!!!

    K.... G....

    one of Glenn's classic performances on this one, funk-KAY!

    K.... G....

    Much respect to you Ka'sette! Your dad was truly awesome! It' a honor to reply to you and pay homage to a person so loved for his contribution to the world!

    K.... G....

    Ka'sette Goins indubitably his voice is unbelievable. Placebo Syndrome too

    K.... G....

    Glen Goins was the best vocal singer on the music chart. The brother died too soon to get his full recognition!! His brother Kevin and sister Debra can sing also. The entire family was musically inclined!!! I loved that brother!! Miss you a lot Glen, we all lost a lot when you crossed over to the other side!!!

  39. J.... P....

    Tales if Kidd funkadelic was before this

    S.... M....

    chris edwards: it was. tales of Kidd funkadelic was mid seventies, this album was late seventies. actually, sky Stone is on this album also.

    S.... M....

    chris edwards Tales of Kidd Funkadelic was released before this true, but it was all the leftovers from what the band already gave Warners, which ended up being Hardcore Jollies.

    S.... M....

    Don't forget *"Chameleon" by Herbie Hancock (1973)* , with a legendary ARP Oddyssey funky bassline.

    S.... M....

    Keyboard work is insane. Bernie was on another stratosphere

  52. M.... C....

    Bernie solo on the Melodica is Classic

  53. M.... C....

    This is the one that got me into Funkadelic

    M.... C....

    ...Not a bad choice....

  54. l.... ....

  58. b.... ....

    Lord God thank you for giving us, Parliament Funkadelic...

  59. M.... C....

    I found myself a plenty of nites playing this over and over and over and over and ect.

  60. K.... ....

    @MoMaFunkyrhcp damn right and very eloquently delivered like a sweet chariot on sunday.

  61. R.... T....

    You must partake of the chronic first....then it all comes together. But then again, you can really feel this one without outside help :D

  62. T.... Z....

    GLEN!!!!

  63. R.... ....

    Es la música que no muere. Estimula al cuerpo y al movimiento; caperuzos, buenazo.

  64. L.... S....

    @NicoleH73 That's so cool to hear! I'm only 18 so i don't have my own kids (yet), but i've teached my 9 year old lil bro to avoid the mainstream crap that's on tv nowadays, and instead listening to funk, soul, reggae, old rock etc.
    I think we all should do the same, teach the little ones right from the beginning what is REAL MUSIC.

  65. L.... S....

    I quess you could call this "stoner funk"

    L.... S....

    Lauri Saarinen no stoner necessary

  66. B.... ....

    My mother said she would play "Hardcore Jollies" and I would dance (I was three!) here I am 37 with two children of my own, and this has to be my favorite Funkadelic album hands down. Music in a childs life (especially good music) can make all the difference. We have to pass this funk-legacy on!

  67. B.... L....

    RIP gary hope your still wearin that diaper reigning over all the starchildren in funkadelia

  68. T.... S....

    Smokey baby, you got me singing this sweet refrain!

  69. S.... S....

    I MISS AND LOVE YOU UNCCLE GARRY!! F.I.P. !!!!!!!!!!!
    YOUR NEFEW IN P QUAZEDELIC

  70. M.... ....

    fucking awesome!!!!

  71. S.... D....

    There's this lady that works with me that embodies this song in every way. She's about 5'2", thick in the azz, the color of Hershey's Dark Chocolate. Oh, how I have slobbered and lusted uponst her image in my mind...PEACE.

    S.... D....

    Stevie Del Ray creep ass nigga 😂😂😂😂

  72. T.... Z....

    its like cosmic gospel, out of space salvation in the form of a harmonic laying on of hands... absolutely divine
