Come On
D minor/C major
Verse
Was a time I ran for the hills
Chased a fox in my armoured truck
Come on
Was a time I drowned in the ocean
Got lost in the potion
Couldn’t get enough
Come on
Was a time I lost my way
Couldn’t find a map
Chased the stars away
Was a time I couldn’t see
Watch your back
Whatcha saying to me
Come on
Pre Chorus
A diamond in the rough won’t be what you want
If you ain’t got the heat
The bad and the good are always understood
These are the rules of the street
Chorus
Come on, get it on
Dance with the devil gonna break your fall
Come on, get it on
Dance with the devil gonna kill your soul
Come on, get it on
A one stop shop won’t fix a thing
Come on get it on
Grab that angel and let her sing
La da, dah dah, dah dah dah
La da, dah dah, dah dah dah
Verse
Was a time I looked in the mirror
Couldn’t see any clearer
Couldn’t call my bluff
Come On
Was a time I was down with the notion
Money was a lotion
Come On
Was a time I lost my way
Couldn’t find a map
Chased the stars away
Was a time I couldn’t see
Watch your back
Whatcha saying to me
Come On
Pre Chorus
A diamond in the rough won’t be what you want
If you ain’t got the heat
The bad and the good are always understood
These are the rules of the street
Chorus
Come on, get it on
Dance with the devil gonna break your fall
Come on, get it on
Dance with the devil gonna kill your soul
Come on, get it on
A one stop shop won’t fix a thing
Come on get it on
Grab that angel and let her sing
La da, dah dah, dah dah dah
La da, dah dah, dah dah dah
Bridge
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh won’t you please take me home
X4
Chorus
Come on, get it on
Dance with the devil gonna break your fall
Come on, get it on
Dance with the devil gonna kill your soul
Come on, get it on
A one stop shop won’t fix a thing
Come on get it on
Grab that angel and let her sing

Shon Wong, performer known as Son of James, was born and raised in Vancouver, BC. At a young age growing up with a family of Chinese Opera actors and performers, music and art has always been a big part of his life. Shon would listen to classical Chinese music at home in their downtown family apartment. Down the halls, neighbours would blast Rock music heard easily through the walls, including music by Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Guns N Roses, and Van Halen.. He would find himself back and forth between the musical environments, eager to catch the songs of the day from both home and hallways. As he grew older posters of Jimi Hendrix and Bruce Lee hung on his walls, depicting the split influences and inspiration all around him.
In 2013 Son of James was born and original songs were crafted. Shon explains “Each song is painted with a rustic grace found on the train tracks of the wild west, while carrying cargos of silk traveling from the orient.”
“Son of James assert themselves as one of the most diverse and eclectic group of artists to grace the Canadian Independent Music Scene.” – Gerrod Harris, Canadianbeats.ca
