Doing It To Death lyrics -James Brown
Hit it! How you feelin' brother? (Feelin' good!)
You're feelin' good
You play so much bone, brother
How you feelin', man? (I feel all right!)
I won't call your name
I don't want no people to know you're in here
How you feelin', fellas? (All right!)
Now jam! Sure gettin' down
We're gonna have a funk good time...
We gotta take you higher
Huh! All right!
We gotta take you higher, huh!
Brothers! Now I want everybody to blow
About two choruses
And then I'm gonna wave you in
I wanna get the fella
With the little horn over there
Fred's gonna take us higher, take us higher
Fred, Fred, Fred!
You know what, when I hear a groove
Like this groove, oh!
I say, I got to get higher
Yeah baby, yeah, yeah
Look a'here
When someone's got a groove like this
You know, you know, no!
I need to grit, gotta grit
Gonna eat, gotta eat
Need to grit, gotta grit, no breath
You know, brothers
I'm gettin' ready to wave y'all in
You know what
I feel so down, I need to get down
In order for me to get down
I got to get in D.
In order for me to get down, I got to get in D.
Need to get in D., dog for D.
Down D., funky D., shakin' D., down D.
Oh! Huh! Ha ha!
Get on down!
Look a'here, look at that
What we gotta do
Gotta have a funk good time...
Oh, yeah
I didn't know you were singin', Fred
Don't moan so much

We gotta take you higher
Wait a minute!

(I know I've seen him somewhere)
Is that Maceo?

For Goodness Sakes, Take a Look At Those Cakes (Pt. 2) lyrics - James Brown
Wait a minute, is that Jimmy?
Lay them cakes down for me
Lay 'em down!
Say Joe (Yeah), bring your cakes up to that horn and play that horn
Play your horn! Play your cake on it
Wait a minute, Joe, no more
Looka here, haha
She's tall, slim, brown and fat
Looka here, brother, I'll have some of that
I said she's tall, slim, she could be brown and fat
But if she got those cakes, ha, I'll have some of that
(Some of that, some of that, some of that)
She could be short, stacked, built, and strong
That's what makes my groove last long - can you dig that?
And I'll have some of that, ha, I'll have some of that
Yes, I'll have some of that, ha
For goodness sake, look at those cakes
Looka there, fellas - look at that, Joe
You like that, Joe? I mean, don't jive yourself, do you like them cakes?
I mean, Pinck, you've been around too long, Pinck
I don't think you like cakes - you like cakes, Bernie?
What about it, Hollie, you like them cakes?
My, my, my, Hollie, you sure sound - hahaha
Oh Lord, I didn't mean nothin', looka here
For goodness sakes just look at those cakes
We're gonna get this thing started like this, fellas
Now, when she walks she blows my mind
That foxy devil, she sure look fine
For goodness sakes, just look at those cakes
All I can say is she got what it takes
And for goodness sakes, can I look at those cakes?
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo
Huh, good God
Now, now me and the boys just taking a walk
Rappin' a little, having a talk
In comes this chick, blue jeans, and man she was slick
It wasn't the size that got my eye but what we realized
For goodness sakes, man, did you see those cakes?
Did you see those cakes? My, my, my, my, my, my
Mmm-hmm, looka here, I'll have some of that, hey hey
Can you play like that, Joe?
OW! Ha! Ah-ha, ah-ha, whoa
For Goodness Sakes, Take A Look At Those Cakes (Pt.1) lyrics - James Brown
OW!
Boogie boogie boogie boogie
Wait a minute
Now, me and the boys taking a walk
Rapping a little and just having talk
In comes this chick, blouse and jeans, and man was she slick
But it wasn't the size that got my eyes, but what made me realize
For goodness sakes, just look at those cakes
Lookit
Right away I had to say I feel some guilt
Because, brother, was she built
From her head to her feet, I know she had to be nice, tasty, and sweet
But one thing I wanna say
For goodness sakes, just look at those cakes
Wait a minute, huh, huh
Fellas, do you like them cakes?
Do you like those cakes over there?
Now, we got small cakes, we got tall cakes
We got brown cakes, we got round cakes
We got fat cakes, ha, ah-ha, wait a minute
Ha, wait a minute
Hey fellas, ha - hey fellas (Yeah)
Hey fellas, come on home
You need some cakes, just show your bone
But if you know just what I know
You'll take yourself to the disco
And when you see it you're bound to put on brakes
And then you say 'For goodness sakes, just look at those cakes'
Can you see those cakes? I love those cakes, haha
Boy, when you got those high-waisted jeans on
And doing The Spank and doing The Freak, man, you gotta check out those cakes
I want cakes in the morning, I want cakes all the time
Just look at those cakes, and my, my, my, my, my, my...
Georgia On My Mind lyrics - James Brown
Georgia, oh Georgia
No, no, no, no, no peace I find
Just an old sweet song keeps
Georgia on my mind
I said a Georgia, heh, maybe it's because
I'm from Augusta, Georgia
A song, a song of you
Comes so sweet and clear
Like the moonlight through the pines
Oh now
Other arms reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
The road leads back to you, yeah
Georgia, yeah, Georgia
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no peace I find
Just an old sweet song keeps
Georgia on my mind, sing the song
Other arms reach out to me
Other eyes will smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
The road leads back to you, oh, oh
Georgia, Georgia
Ah! No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no peace I find
Just an old sweet song keeps
Georgia, my hometown, on my mind
Oh Georgia

I don't want nobody
To give me nothing
Open up the door
I'll get it myself
Do you hear me
Don't give me denegration
Give me true communication
Don't give me sorrow
I want equal opportunity
To live tomorrow
Give me schools
And give me better books
So I can read about myself
And gain my truly looks
Do you hear me now, now

As hard as we can
We don't want no sympathy
We just wanna be a man
Do you hear me
We got talents we can use
On our side of town

And get it up from the ground
When some of us make money

I'm Shook lyrics - James Brown
Ha, ha, ha, uh, ha
Here I stand waiting in vain
My tears are falling down like rain
All my friends told me someday you'd make me cry
I said they were jealous and, and it was just a lie
But here I stand, my broken heart
Why oh why did we ever have to part?
Oh, my darling, won't you ease the pain
By saying they were wrong
Don't let me stand here, you don't ease the pain
I got to stand here waiting in vain
Just stand here now, waiting in vain
I got to stand here now, waiting in vain
One, two, three
I say, here I stand, waiting in vain, ha
My tears are falling down like rain
People said that they don't know
I got to tell 'em, the thing I have, ha
I know for sure
Don't let me, don't let me leave, ha
Don't let me leave
Don't be so cruel, ha
Don't think you'll find a fool
I'm all shook up
I'm all shook up
I'm all shook up
I'm all shook up
I said I'm shook
I said I'm shook
I said I'm shook
I said I'm shook
Here I stand, just waiting in vain
My tears are falling down, down, down, like rain, ha
All of my friends, they told me someday
That you'd make me, you'd make me cry, ha
I said they, they, they were jealous
And it, and it was, and it was just a lie
Here I stand with a broken heart

We got 'em, Georgia brother?
Hey Arkansas brother, we got 'em?

In the love I need why did we part
Bewildered, has love, has love died dear
Wishing your heart could feel
What's in my heart
Must I have sleepless night
And endless days
Oh love why did you keep my soul
Without a spark I'm in the dark
Bewildered
I need your, I need your I need your guiding hand
I'll never, no I'll never understand
How you can love me, how you can love me
How you can love me, how you can love me
How you can love me and leave me Bewildered, Bewidered
Can't Get Any Harder Lyrics – James Brown (feat. Leaders of the New School)
(The star of the show
Hard-working Mr. Dynamite
Jaaaaaames Brown) (Brown) (Brown) (Brown)..
(Get up)
[Charlie Brown:]
Yo, I don't mean to brag, there's the tag
Brown got a brand new bag
Shining star up to par
Bars guitars
So far so good, gettin greater at last
Where it counts, later for the last
First you're dead and stinkin
Thinkin, winkin, drinkin, sinkin
Ba-ba-ba-blinkin
Baby paw, New York City is in the house
Without a doubt, we turn the mutha out
Routs threw out shouts: "ain't we funky now"
Godfather, Soul Brother Number One
[Milo:]
Ugh! (Ugh!) Ugh! (Ugh!) Ugh!
I'm hot, huh!
90 are levels of degrees burnin
Turnin in a rough rotation
Livin in the land of the lost and found
Can't drown in sounds of the James Brown, Brown, Brown
This is the mixture when you add hard texture
Can't get no harder, so I'm out to getcha
Its essence felt, you're turned inside out
Fellas, what you gon' say now?
Thirsty? Not, my verse just quenched your thirst
From the burst of energy
Shinin on the appetite
Can't cross the thin line of the end of my time
(Hah!) Hold it, I'm still burnin
Pop or not, I come to break up slots
Cause it can't get no harder
Give it to me, Godfather
[James Brown:]
Can't get any harder - than what I got
Cause what I got - is sho' nuff hard to stop
Can't get any harder - cause what I got
Cause what I got - is sho' nuff hard to stop
Hey!
I've been around for a long time
Won't let nobody bring me down
Rock solid, solid as a rock
Too smooth to move and too hard to stop
[Busta Rhymes:]
Oh yes, come and get with this entourage
As we get busy in the garage
Leaders of the New forever large
Cause we got the funk flip script, oh yes
Get up and ill, everybody move your hip, scream out: "Yes!"
That's what I'm talkin about - ah!
Busta, Leaders come and turn it out
Don't try to front on the flavor
Save that for later
Or join the Maker in the spirit like an elevator
You wanna know somethin funny? I was devasted
When I elaborated how we collaborated
With singers in music activated
Most necessary that we salute many too livin legendary
James Brown comin to you, better open the door
Because I wanna MOP THE FLOOR!
[James Brown:]
Do it, ya
Gimme some rap, now - hah
Put it there
Welcome to the club
Huh!
Bring it all together
Can't get any harder - ugh - than what I got
(Soul!)
Cause what I got - is sho' nuff hard to stop
Can't get any harder - ah, good God - than what I got
(Soul!)
Cause what I got - aaaaeeew - is sho' nuff hard to stop
I've been around for a long time
Won't let nobody bring me down
Rock solid, solid as a rock
Too smooth to move and too hard to stop
Can't get any harder
Ugh!
Agh!
Move-a
Aaaaaaooooh yes-a!
Aaaaaaaw!
The groove move ya
Can't get any harder - than what I got
Cause what I got - is sho' nuff hard to stop
Can't get any harder - good God - than what I got
Cause what I got - is sho' nuff hard to stop

Goodbye My Love Lyrics – James Brown
Or a woman makes a mistake
Try to find a reason for making a mistake
But there is no reason for making a mistake
The only thing you do is when
You make a mistake is say I'm sorry
Take a man or a woman to say I'm sorry
And it takes a fool to walk away
So right here I want to say I'm sorry
I don't know where you are
But you know I need you
Now there's one more thing I'd like to say right here
I could say goodbye, you just don't understand
I could say baby I believe you got another man
And that I could say I just can't help myself
But I wouldn't be a man
And that I could say maybe we don't have nothing left
But I want you to know I still love you
Oh no matter where you go, I still love you
Oh, oh take it down Jimmy
Goodbye my love, throwing me away
Goodbye my love
There's one more thing you know to have
Someone to worry when you're wrong
Feel the need of a real person
When your friends drop you behind
To kill your anger just by being nice and kind
I could say if you leave it wouldn't bother me
But I know that would be a lie
Cause baby deep down you bother me
But I want you to know and I don't care who knows
I still love you
Woa, oh, I still love you
Oh, oh take it down Jimmy
Oh, oh take it down Jimmy look a here

I Got The Feelin' Lyrics – James Brown
You wonder why it ain't on the table
After the day that I've had
I don't believe I'm able
You give me every little reason in the book
But there's one thing that I think you've overlooked
you say you're tired, well so am I
Baby you've got to try and
Meet halfway or we ain't gonna make it, baby
Meet halfway if you want to get it right
Meet halfway cause I ain't gonna take it, baby
Meet halfway in the middle of the night
Our love is kind of stalled, baby
But it aint about the sex
I'd trade the roses and the negligees
If we could just connect
I go deeper when you look into my eyes
There's a place where neither one of us can hide
And it's up to us to reinvent the game
Love it when you call my name and
Meet halfway, ain't no doubt about it, baby
Meet halfway, and we're halfway home
Meet halfway, got to scream and shout it, baby
Meet me halfway and I'll shake you to the bone
I Got You (I Feel Good) Lyrics – James Brown
I feel good, I knew that I wouldn't of
So good, so good, I got you
Wo! I feel nice, like sugar and spice
I feel nice, like sugar and spice
So nice, so nice, I got you

When I hold you in my arms
I know that I can do no wrong
and when I hold you in my arms
My love won't do you no harm
and I feel nice, like sugar and spice
I feel nice, like sugar and spice
So nice, so nice, I got you
[Sax, two licks to bridge]
When I hold you in my arms
I know that I can't do no wrong
and when I hold you in my arms
My love can't do me no harm
and I feel nice, like sugar and spice
I feel nice, like sugar and spice
So nice, so nice, well I got you
Wo! I feel good, I knew that I wouldn't of
I feel good, I knew that I would

Is It Yes Or Is It No? Lyrics – James Brown
Did you ever, making me cry
Did you ever, making me die
Was it fun, making me suffer
Was it fun, making me suffer
Now is your answer ves ro is it no
Is it yes or no

'Cause you left me you'll all alone
Now was it fun when you said you weren't

Was it fun now when he made his little run
Oh know on the
Is it yes or Lorg is it yes
Or is it no
Is it yes or no
Oh yes now you won't be back
But remember you gave me my little sack
Now darling you made my life complete
Lord just thrown me out in the street now
But I want your answer

Oh Lord is it no

Tell me, is it yes

It's A Man's, Man's, Man's World Lyrics – James Brown
This is a mans world
But it would be nothing,nothing
Without a women or a girl
[verse 1:]
You see, man made the car
To take us over the road
Man made the train
To carry the heavy load
Man made the electrolight
To take us out of the dark
Man made the boat full of water
Like noah made the arc
This is a mans,mans,mans world
But it would be nothing, nothing
Without a women or a girl
[verse 2:]
Man thinks about little bit of baby girls and a baby boys
Man make them happy
Cos man make them toys
And after man make everything
Everything he can
You know that man makes money
To buy from other man
This is a mans world
But it would be nothing, nothing
Not one little thing
Without a women or a girl
He's lost in the wilderness
He's lost in bitterness
It's A New Day Lyrics – James Brown
We gotta let the girls know what they gotta do for us!
It's than gotta be a drag, man, a man can't do nothin' no more!
A-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Is really a drag?
You gotta do somethin'!
Can I count 'em?
Look me here!
Girl, let me tell you what you got to do,
Keepin' me so mellow, so nobody can get through.
When he had to do your lovin', smilin' keeps us cheek,
Walk away and twist your hip, make sure you keep him weak.
Don't let nobody take care o' your business better than you do,
Do what he wants, give what he wants, expect 'em come to you.
And than you can hold your men, you can hold your men, you can hold your men,
you can hold..., hey!
Never get so confident was nothin' you want to know,
You caught up your time, you lose your thing, you think you got to go.
You know what we got to tell 'em to take a plea until balls,
Use your thing so carefully and don't be a total loss.
Sister, when you loved your man, be careful, I ain't tellin' that
He will put you back on the corner, use you like it's in the hat.
You can hold your men, you can hold your men, you can hold your men, you can
hold, hey!
Hit it!
Good god, kill it!
Hit me now!
Good god!
Never get too confident so it's nothin' you want to know,

You know I got what it takes to take a plea until balls,
You gotta use it carefully and it can't be a total...
Hit me now!
Good god, kill it!

And make sure you keep him weak, good god,

King Heroin Lyrics – James Brown
Fellow Americans
Lady Americans
This is James Brown
I wanna talk to you about one of our
Most deadly
Killers in the country today
I had a dream the other night, and I
Was sittin' in my living room
Dozed off to sleep
So I start to dreamin'
I dreamed I walked in a place and
I saw a real strange, weird object
Standin' up talkin' to the people
And I found out it was Heroin
That deadly drug that go in your veins
He says:
I came to this country without a passport
Ever since then I've been hunted and sought
My little white grains are nothin' but waste
Soft and deadly and bitter to taste
I'm a world of power and all know it's true
Use me once and you'll know it, too
I can make a mere schoolboy forget his books
I can make a world-famous beauty neglect her looks
I can make a good man forsake his wife
Send a greedy man to prison for the rest of his life
I can make a man forsake his country and flag
Make a girl sell her body for a five-dollar bag
Some think my adventure's a joy and a thrill
But I'll put a gun in your hand and make you kill
In cellophane bags I've found my way
To heads of state and children at play
I'm financed in China, ran in Japan
I'm respected in Turkey and I'm legal in Siam
I take my addicts and make 'em steal, borrow, beg
Then they search for a vein in their arm or their leg
So, be you Italian, Jewish, Black or Mex
I can make the most virile of men forget their sex
So now, no, my man, you must (you know) do your best
To keep up your habit until your arrest
Now the police have taken you from under my wing
Do you think they dare defy me, I who am king?
Now, you must lie in that county jail
Where I can't get to you by visit or mail
So squirm - with discomfort - wiggle and cough (hack!)
Six days of madness, hah! You might throw me off
Curse me in name! Defy me in speech!
But you'd pick me up right no if I were in your reach
All through your sentence you've become resolved to your fate
Hear now! younng man and woman, I'll be waitin' at the gate
Don't be afraid, don't run! I'm not chased
Sure my name is Heroin! You'll be back for a taste
Behold, you're hooked!
Your foot is in the stirrup
And make -- haste!
Mount the steed!
And ride him well
For the white horse of heroin
Will ride you to Hell!
To Hell!
Will ride you to Hell!
Until you are dead!
Dead, brother! Dead!
This is a revolution of the mind
Get your mind together
And get away from drugs!
That's the man!
Back! Back
Let A Man Come In And Do The Popcorn, Pt. 1 Lyrics – James Brown
I got to have fun I'm gonna do my thing
Way over yonder can you dig that mess
The sister standing out there dressed up
In a brand new mini dress
Look hey over there

And dig that soul brother look at him doing the popcorn
Hey everybody I got a brand new start
Hey, hey everybody I got a brand new start
I ain't gonna hurt nobody
I just, I just I just wanna help my heart
Gonna have a ball sure as you're born
Gonna have a ball sure as you're born
I'm gonna dance, dance, dance do the popcorn
Hey look a there hey look a there
Do you see what I see
Everybody doing the popcorn but me
Get back over there with your mini dress
Look out good mama I gotta do my best
Hey over there hey over there look a here
A look a here I got the best band in the land
I just gotta jump back take my stand
I want to ask the fellows don't have no doubt
I just got to lay to lay it right out
Licking Stick Lyrics – James Brown
bring me that lickin' stick.
Mama, come here quick,
bring me that lickin' stick.
Mama, come here quick,
bring me that lickin' stick.
Mama, come here quick,
bring me that lickin' stick.
People standin',
standin' in a trance.
Sister out in the backyard
doin' the outside dance.
Come'n tell me you love me,
she didn't wanna be a drag.
I don't know what she's doin',
I think she's got a brand new bag.
Mama, come here quick,
bring me that lickin' stick.
Mama, come here quick,
bring me that lickin' stick.
People standin',
standin' in a trance.
Sister out in the backyard
doin' the outside dance.
Come'n tell me you love me,
she didn't wanna be a drag.
I don't know what she's doin',
I think she's got a brand new bag.
Mama, come here quick,
bring me that lickin' stick.
Mama, come here quick,
bring me that lickin' stick.
Mama, come here quick,
bring me that lickin' stick.
Mama, come here quick,
bring me that lickin' stick.

Living In America Lyrics – James Brown
Super highwys, coast to coast, easy to get anywhere
On the transcontinental overload, just slide behind the wheel
How does it feel
When theres no destination-that's too far
And somewhere on the way, you might find out who you are
Livin' in America-eye to eye, station to station
Livin' in America-hand to hand,across the nation
Livin in America-got to have a celebration
Rock my soul
Smokestack, fatback,many miles of railroad track
All night radio, keep on runnin' through, your rock 'n' roll soul
All night diners, keep you 'wake, on black coffee, and a hard roll
You might have to walk the fine line,
you might take the hard line
But everybody's workin' overtime
Livin' in America-eye to eye, station to station
Livin' in America-hand to hand,across the nation
Livin in America-got to have a celebration
I live in America, help me out,
but I live in America,
wait a minute
You may not be looking for the promise land,
but you might find it anyway
Under one of those old familiar names
Like New Orleans (New Orleans) Detroit City (Detroit City), Dallas (Dallas), Pittsburg P.A. (Pittsburg P.A.) New York City (New York City)Kansas City (Kansas City)Atlanta (Atlanta) CHICAGO & L.A.!
Livin in America-hit me
Livin in America-yeah,
I walk in and out
Livin' in America
I live in America-state lines,
gonna make the prime, that
I live in America-hey
I know what it means,I
Livin' in America...
Livin' in America- hit me now, eye to eye, station to station
Livin' in America
Livin' in America-I feel good!

Papa's Got A Brand New Bag Lyrics – James Brown
He ain't too hip... about that new breed babe
He ain't no drag
Papa's got a brand new bag
Come here mama... and dig this crazy scene
He's not too fancy... but his line is pretty clean
He ain't no drag.
Papa's got a brand new bag
He's doing the Jerk...
He's doing the Fly
Don't play him cheap 'cause you know he ain't shy
He's doing the Monkey, the Mashed Potatoes, Jump back Jack, See you later
alligator.
Come here sister
Papa's in the swing
He ain't too hip now
but I can dig that new breed babe;
He ain't no drag
He's got a brand new bag
Oh papa! He's doing the Jerk
Papa... he's doing the Jerk
He's doing the twist ... just like this,
He's doing the Fly ev'ry day and ev'ry night
The thing's... like the Boomerang.
Hey... come on
Hey! Hey... come on
Hey! Hey... he's pu tight... out of sight...
Come on. Hey! Hey!

Play That Funky Music White Boy Lyrics – James Brown
Playin' in a Rock & Roll Band
I never had no problems
Burnin' down the night stands
And everything around me,
Got to stop to feelin' so low
And I decided quickly,
Yes I did
To disco down and check out the show
Yeah they were
Dancin' and singin'
and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down that boogie and play that funky music till you die
Till you die ,
oh till you die
I tried to understand this
I thought that they were outta there minds
How could I be so foolish
To not See I was the one behind
So still I kept on fighting
Loosing every step by the way
I said, I must go back there
In Jackessee still the things are the same
When they were
Dancin' and singin'
and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down that boogie and play that funky music till you die
Till you die,
oh till you die
[SOLO]
At first it wasn't easy
Changed in Rock'n'Roll at mind
The things won't get 'n shaking
I thought I have to leave it behind
But now it's so much better
I'm funking out and out by the way
Well, I'll never loose that feeling
How I learned by lesson yeahea
When they were
Dancin' and singin'
and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down that boogie and play that funky music till you die
Till you die,
oh till you die
That's all
Play that funky music...
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right

Prisoner Of Love Lyrics – James Brown
Too weak to break the chains that bind me
I need no shackles to remind me
I'm just a prisoner of love
For one command I stand and wait now
From one who's master of my fate now
I can't escape for it's too late now
I'm just a prisoner of love
What's the good of my caring if someone is sharing those arms with me
Although she has another, I can't have another for I'm not free
She's in my dreams awake or sleeping
Upon my knees to her I'm creeping
My very life is in her keeping
I'm just a prisoner of love
What's the good of my caring if someone is sharing those arms with me
Although she has another, I can't have another for I'm not free
She's in my dreams awake or sleeping
Upon my knees to her I'm creeping
My very life is in her keeping
I'm just a prisoner of love
Say It Loud - I'm Black And I'm Proud Lyrics – James Brown
Say it louder (I got a mouth)
Say it louder (I got a mouth)
Look a'here, some people say we got a lot of malice
Some say it's a lotta nerve
I say we won't quit moving
Til we get what we deserve
We've been buked and we've been scourned
We've been treated bad, talked about
As just as sure as you're born
But just as sure as it take
Two eyes to make a pair, huh
Brother, we can't quit until we get our share
Say it loud,
I'm black and I'm proud
Say it loud,
I'm black and I'm proud, one more time
Say it loud,
I'm black and I'm proud, huh
I've worked on jobs with my feet and my hands
But all the work I did was for the other man
And now we demands a chance
To do things for ourselves
we tired of beating our heads against the wall
And working for someone else
Say it loud,
I'm black and I'm proud
Say it loud,
I'm black and I'm proud
Say it loud,
I'm black and I'm proud
Say it loud,

Alright uh, you're out of sight
Alright, so tough, you're tough enough
Ooowee uh, you're killing me, oow
Say it loud,
I'm black and I'm proud
Say it louder,
I'm black and I'm proud
Now we demand a chance to do things for ourselves
We tired of beating our heads against the wall
And working for someone else
A look a'here,
One thing more I got to say right here
Now, we're people like the birds and the bees
We rather die on our feet,
Than keep living on our knees
Say it loud,
I'm black and I'm proud, hu
Say it loud,
I'm black and I'm proud, hu
Say it loud,
I'm black and I'm proud, Lord'a Lord'a Lord'a

You know we can do the boog-a-loo
Now we can say we do the Funky Broadway!
Now we can do, hu
Sometimes we dance, we sing and we talk
You know I do like to do the camel walk
Alright now, hu alright,
Alright now, ha
Say it loud,
I'm black and I'm proud
Say it louder,
I'm black and I'm proud, let me hear ya
Say it louder,

Say it louder,

Now we's demands a chance to do things for ourselves
We're tired of beating our heads against the wall
And working for someone else, hu

The Bells Lyrics – James Brown
With eyes of flaming red
Their rovers are tied with ribbing
All around my baby's head
The bells are ringing And their sail is going to sea
Yes I know why they're ringing
They ring on for me
Oh yea
I wish I could see my baby
This can't happen to me
No, ...
Baby please forgive me
I know I've caused you pain
I'll place your tears with diamonds
Just to see your face again
[Repeat]
Ashes into ashes
Dust to dust
Ashes into ashes

Take your kids and raise them up, Somebody think I have a right to be tough
Take her, take that woman, it's one place she found
Just run that mother out of town!!
Got to get up!! Got to get up, get out!! [x2]
