Hit Record

Hit Record - Brook Benton

Written by：Sibelius Williams

People always ask me

How do you make a hit record

And I tell them it's you

The public who make hit records

But here's what I do

Now I get a little beat

And I get a little song

And I get a little group

Then the band comes along

That's all that's all

That's all that's all

That's all I need

To make a hit record

What I met a man

With a long cigar

I said look here man

I wanna be a star

Listen to my beat

Listen to my song

N nice

Liste to my group

Man we can't go wrong

That's all that's all

That's all that's all

That's all I need

To make a hit record

Well he made me sign

The paper for twenty years

But I didn't mind that paper

Cause the people cheered

When they heard my beat

When they heard my song

When they dug the group

Well it didn't take long

That's all that's all

That's all that's all

That's all I need

To make a hit record

Now I'm walking on air

I ain't got a care

Said why don't you

Try the same thing too

Just get a little beat

Get yourself a song

Now dig the group

Man you can't go wrong

That's all that's all

That's all that's all

That's all I need

To make a hit record
