about

This track began with a straight eight note feel at a moderately slow tempo, then morphed into a Bernard "Pretty" Purdie style shuffle, thanks to a suggestion made by lead vocalist, Marcel Morejon. I composed the music and lyrics, programmed percussion, played keyboards, fretless bass, guitar and sang backing vocals. Morejon sang lead and backing vocals, and Jerry O'Malley played drums.

SOUL SAFARI
Copyright © 2016 by Kam Falk

As the sun set
The boys, they were placin’ their bets
She’s was a huntress, she didn’t make time for regrets
When our eyes met
I knew that she was scouting her prey
She was a veteran and she knew just how to play

Soul Safari, you know I was asleep at the wheel
Soul Safari, she found her next victim and she closed the deal
(Soul Safari)

In high fashion
she glowed from her head to her toes
I took the bait and then I began to propose

“Do I know you?”
She asked as I stammered away
Another wild one on her third cabernet

Confused and distracted like never before, I just couldn't find a way out
I don't even know if I'll try anymore, I've forgotten what freedom's about

I embraced her
Obeying every single command
The players, they won, but they just don’t understand

And she had me
moving in the following week
We were together, but I was alone on a losing streak

Soul Safari, I couldn’t help but see it through
Soul Safari, she found her next victim and I had no clue

Soul Safari, The boys turned out to be right
Soul Safari, she found her next victim and she owned me that night

She's pullin' me down
She's draggin' me down
She's pullin' me way, way, way down
