Trying to make a woman that you move

And we're sharing in the Weekapaug Groove.

Jeff Goldberg explains the alleged birth of these lyrics:

It is indeed nonsensical-- in that most people think the lyric is

"match" when it IS actually "that." The lyrics were concocted in an

inebriated state on the road after leaving a gig in Weekapaug, RI-- The

70's disco song "Oh What a Night" was on the radio- Mike was singing

along during the part that goes "Oh I... " and he didn't know the lyrics

following the "Oh I" so he just sang what he remembered it as in his

head: "Oh I'm...Trying to make a woman that you moooove. ()"

This then became a joke within the band, and the song's lyrics were

written.

Also, it's funny, because the melody to the vocals is still the same as

the melody for the bridge of "Oh What a Night."
