Do you remember when the smooth sounds of classic R&B was all over the radio, and when groups like The Dells just blew you away? Especially this song - Stay in My Corner, with lead baritone and lead vocal by the crooning, multi-talented Marvin Junior.

The Dells did a lot of living between the time the group first formed in 1952 and 2004, the year the group was inducted into both the Vocal Group Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. We won't try to tell their whole story here, but these links should get you started.

In the meantime, enjoy these lyrics as you listen to the smooth sounds of...The Dells!

If you stay, stay darling
(Stay in my corner)
You make me oh so proud, stay darling
Please, stay
(Stay in my corner)
To the world I'd cry my love
How I love you
Honey, I love you, I really love you
(Stay, stay, stay, stay)
Please, please, please stay darling
(Stay in my corner)
And I will never, never let you down
Just say you'll stay
(Stay in my corner)
'Cause I'll need you always around
To tell me you love me
Honey, you love me, so darling stay
(Stay, stay, stay)
There'll be times when I may fail
And I'll need your love to sometimes comfort me
Bitter days may prevail but just a kiss from you
Will make them sweet, stay
(Stay, stay, stay)
But just a kiss from you
Will make them sweet
Honey, I love you
(Stay)
I love you
(Stay)
I love you
(Stay in my corner)
I love you
I love you
(Stay)
I love you
(Stay)
I love you
(Stay in my corner)
Don't you know baby
(Stay)
I love you
(Stay)
I love you
(Stay in my corner)
I love you

I love you
(Stay)
I love you
(Stay in my corner)
I love you
(Stay)
I love you
(Stay in my corner)
