I always loved the Gap Band. Lots of great memories from dancing to their music at many parties.

And then when the lights were dimmed

Man, I miss old school parties!!

Jack and Jill went up the hill, to fetch a pale of water, Jack got down and Jill came around, now they have a son and a daughter.

Gotta love those lyrics. Lol.

And these lyrics.
