In The Basement, Part 1 (duet With Sugar Pie Desanto) Lyrics - Etta James

Oh, now tell me where can you party, child, all night long? 

In the basement, down in the basement, yeah 

Oh where can you go when your money gets low? 

In the basement, whoa down in the basement 

And if a storm is taking place, you can jam and still be safe 

In the basement, down in the basement, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 

Oh, where can you dance to any music you choose? 

In the basement, whoa down in the basement 

Oh, you got the comforts of home, a nightclub too 

In the basement, whoa down in the basement 

Theres no cover charge or fee and the food and drinks are free 

In the basement, come on child, yeah down in the basement 

In the basement, thats where it's at 

In the basement, thats where it's at 

In the basement, thats where it's at 

In the basement, thats where it's at 

In the basement, in the basement, in the basement 

Thats where it's at 

You tell 'em 

Where they don't, where they don't check you age at the door 

In the basement, whoa down in the basement 

Oh barracuda and [Incomprehensible] 'til your feet get sore 

In the basement, whoa down in the basement 

Do any dance you want to do, theres no one under you 

In the basement, I know it, you tell em oh I wanna go 

In the basement, thats where it's at 

In the basement, thats where it's at 

In the basement, thats where it's at
