Get into Something is the eighth album released by The Isley Brothers on their T-Neck imprint on March 8, 1970. The album includes six songs that appeared in the top 30 of the Billboard R&B chart between late 1969 and early 1971 (most of which dented the lower reaches of the Pop chart as well): the title track, "Bless Your Heart", the horn and drum-driven "Keep On Doin'", which has won multiple awards including the Mid-Atlantic Soul Music award. (which inspired the instrumental cover by The JBs later that year under the title "The Grunt"), "Freedom", "Girls Will Be Girls", and "If He Can You Can".
The album was remastered and expanded for inclusion in the 2015 released CD box set "The RCA Victor & T-Neck Album Masters, 1959-1983".
All songs written and composed by Rudolph Isley, O'Kelly Isley and Ronald Isley, except where noted.
Ronald Isley sings lead on all tracks except:
Life is what you make it and it can past you fast
What more does it take to get you up off yo' ass
written up at work
workin' for a jerk
name is in the dirt
Now it's time to get into something
Hey there's a party going on
Ain't no reason for you to be, stuck at home all alone
Come on let's reflect
Who is now your ex
lost some self respect
least you've got yo' cheque
Now it's time to get into something
[Chorus: Jene']
Let's go to where the party's jumping
and where the music is bumping
and we ain't caring bout nothing
It's time to get into something
Here we go where we get in free
Or at least where we're drinking for cheap
And forget everything stressing me
It's time to get into something
Something, yeah, mmm-mmm
You know I'm saying
Never sweat the small stuff it happens everyday
Never sweat the small stuff and you will be ok
far away from home
it says you're grown
telling you come on
Now it's time to get into something
Don't worry bout the females staring
They can't do what your wearing
Don't worry bout the fellas staring
They can buy the drinks
Long Island Ice tea
Vodka Martini
Sex on the beach
Now it's time to get into something, yeah
Repeat Chorus
Something ohhh
That's how we roll
Everybody in the front and the back
Throw your hands in the air where you at
If your knowing that you got it like that
Bounce with it, bounce with it
If you a dollar in your pocket
And you wanna get this party started
And you feeling like there ain't no stoppin'
Bounce with it, bounce with it
