come on lyrics
[intro: otis williams]
detroit, michigan
the year? 1960
motown records
at that time, my group was called otis williams and the distants
now, we were recording for a little small label
getting ready to do for you, called ‘come on’
now, ‘come on’ did quite a bit of business, maybe somewhat of a ruckus
so much so that we used to have to do record hops
now, record hops is when you have a record out
you have to go ’round to whatever noted disc jockey was having on friday or sat~rday, even a sunday
um, gathering, you’d have to go there so you can get your rеcord played
so this one particular night, we wеre at st. steven’s community centre
the distants were on stage, so we’re doing ‘come on’ and people are going crazy
but enter walk smokey robinson and the miracles, who are with mr. berry gordy
now, smokey and them were very hot, because they had, uh, ‘shop around’ out
so, when the audience finally let us up, ‘because they kept us on, calling us back for two~to~three different times
and when we finally came off, i’m standing in the crowd, watching smokey and the miracles
it just so happened mr. gordy was standing next to me, and he said
“man, i like that record you guys have out. come see me, i’m starting my label”
and as fate would have it, i kept it, kept the card, and it didn’t go too well for the label that we were recording
so i call mickey stevenson, who was the a&r man for motown, and i told him mr. gordy wanted us to come over and we did just that
and i would like to say, the reason we are doing this record is because it is the pre~eminence of telling the temptations’ life story
because at that time in 1964, entered melvin franklin, david ruffin, eddie kendricks was there, paul williams was there, myself, otis williams
and when smokey wrote ‘the way you do the things you do’, which was 1964, would you believe this is 2021, and we’re still hanging on
so this is our 60th anniversary album
never would imagine that we would get this far for so long
but you know how it is, love can stretch a mile before it tear an inch
and, uh, here we are
so, mr. gordy, i know you will hear this
smokey’s gon’ play you what he did on this album
i wanna say to you, mr. gordy, thank you for being there at the right time and right place
’cause god is always everywhere, and that point in time, he was there for us to make history with you, motown, and become part of something that will live on forever
so, david ruffin (ain’t too proud to beg), eddie kendricks (just my imagination), paul williams (for once in my life), melvin franklin (and that ain’t right), dennis edwards (papa was a rollin’ stone), and all the other temps (my girl, my girl, my girl) that are no longer of this earth
my wonderful friend, ron tyson, who’s been with me for a long time, and terry weeks
i would be remiss if i didn’t mention some of these guys, so i just wanna let you know, aside from berry, given us this point of time, this wonderful time of being here, i love you all
thank you for your support, and to all our many wonderful fans for being
you know my saying when i get ready to leave
see ya, later gone, god bless
(aah, please, please, please, please
please, please, please, please
please, please, please, please) well
(please, please, please)
