About Groovin'

"Groovin'" is a single released in 1967 by The Young Rascals that became a number-one hit and one of the group's signature songs. Written by group members Felix Cavaliere and Eddie Brigati and with a lead vocal from Cavaliere, it is indeed a slow, relaxed groove, based on Cavaliere's newfound interest in Afro-Cuban music. Instrumentation included a conga, harmonica, and an effective, Cuban-based bass guitar line from ace session musician Chuck Rainey. .

Groovin' Lyrics

[00:08.84] Groovin' on a Sunday afternoon
[00:18.12] Really couldn't get away too soon
[00:27.72] I can't imagine anything that's better
[00:32.18] The world is ours whenever we're together
[00:36.58] There ain't a place I'd like to be instead of
[00:40.14] Movin' down a crowded avenue
[00:49.26] Doing anything we like to do
[00:58.95] There's always lots of things that we can see
[01:03.44] You can be anyone we like to be
[01:07.80] And all those happy people we could meet
[01:11.16] Just groovin' on a Sunday afternoon
[01:20.71] Really, couldn't get away too soon
[01:26.77] No, no, no, no
[01:29.79]
[01:43.53] We'll keep on spending sunny days this way
[01:48.18] We're gonna talk and laugh our time away
[01:52.71] I feel it coming closer day by day
[01:56.84] Life would be ecstasy, you and me endlessly
[02:01.02] Groovin' on a Sunday afternoon
[02:10.01] Really couldn't get away to soon
[02:16.16] No, no, no, no
[02:19.26] Groovin'
[02:23.65] Groovin'...
[02:29.01]
