Built on love and a strong foundation
Family ties and close relations
Caring, bearing, and always sharing
Problems together with much understanding

Home is where the heart is
So full of life and love inside
Home is where the heart is
For you and for me, it will be there

Through the years may we all be together
Always to treasure the love that we share
Caring, bearing, and always sharing
Problems together with much understanding

Home is where the heart is
So full of life and love inside
Home is where the heart is
For you and me, it will be there

Home is where the heart is
Yes, it is, always in your heart
Yeah, yeah, tell me that home is
Home is where the heart is
Look in your heart
You will see that
Home is where the heart is

Home is where the heart is
Look in your heart
You will see that, oh, yeah
Tell me that home is
Where the heart is, baby
And I want you to know that
Right now, my love
'Cause home is where the heart is
It's a place that we know
Home is where the heart is...

Kool & the Gang is an American jazz, R&B, soul, funk, and disco group from Jersey City. They were originally named the Jazziacs when they formed the group in 1964.

They went through several musical phases during their recording career, starting out with a purist jazz sound, then funk and R&B, progressing to a smooth pop-funk ensemble, and in the post-millennium creating music with a modern, electro-pop sound.

The group was becoming prominent in the music industry in the 1970s with hits such as “Holly Wood Swinging”, “Jungle Boogie” and “Summer Madness”. However they cemented their legendary status after the addition of lead vocalist James “J.T.” Taylor. With his help they went on to create classic hits such as “Ladies Night”, “Celebration”, “Get Down On It”, “Cherish” and countless others.
