[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Play that groove for me
Play that groove for me

[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
Are you gonna play it, play it just for me?
Funky and lyrical, it swings so naturally
Come on, Grover, I need to hear that tone
'Cause you can groove like no one else when you go on your saxophone

[Chorus]
Play that groove for me (Play that groove for me)
Play that groove for me (Oh)
Play that groove for me (For me)
Play that groove for me

[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
Play that groove for me

Are you gonna play it, play it just for me?
Funky and lyrical, it swings so naturally
Come on, Grover, I need to hear that tone
’Cause you can groove like no one else when you go on your saxophone

[Outro]
Play that groove for me
Play that groove for me
Play that groove for me
Play that groove for me
