Sing it from the mountain
Tell it to the people
Sing it from the mountain
Tell it to the people

When you say you love somebody
You got to let them know about it
You should let them know it
When you say you love somebody
You got to let them know about it

You got this feeling you?ve been wanting to share
It makes you feel as though you?re walking on air
You say this feeling needs a thing called love
Then you should tell the one you?re thinking of

When you say you love somebody
You got to let them know about it
You should let them know it
When you say you love somebody
You got to let them know about it
It is time to show it

In every person, there?s a yearning to love
This is the message that is sent from above
In every heart, there?s a love so true
That?s why I?m sayin? that I love you

When you say you love somebody
You got to let them know about it
You should let them know it
When you say you love somebody
You got to let them know about it
It is time to show it

You know that I love you
You say you love me too
So why don?t you let me know
Let?s open our hearts and let the feelings show

Sing it from the mountain
Tell it to the people
Sing it from the mountain
Tell it to the people

When you say you love somebody
You got to let them know about it
You should let them know it
When you say you love somebody
You got to let them know about it
It is time to show it

When you say you love somebody
You got to let them know about it
You should let them know it
When you say you love somebody
You got to let them know about it
It is time to show it

When you say you love somebody
You got to let them know about it
You should let them know it
When you say you love somebody
You got to let them know about it
It is time to show it

When you say you love somebody
You got to let them know about it
You should let them know it
When you say you love somebody

Kool & the Gang

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.
