James Brown - Mother Popcorn, Pt. 1

Popcorn
Popcorn
Popcorn
Look here, ha, good God
Look here
Do the popcorn and do the horse
Show everybody where you at, you gotta be boss
The way you do your little thing, step in a small ring
And jump back, baby, James Brown's going to do his thing, popcorn
Sometime, sometime I'm feeling low
Sometime I'm feeling low
I call another brother
Talking about Maceo
Maceo, blow your horn
A don't put no trash, ha
Play me some popcorn
Maceo, come on, popcorn

Some like them fat and some like them tall
Some like them short, skinny legs and all
I like them bold, I like them proud
And when they walk, you know they draw a crowd
See, you got to have a mother for me
Popcorn, a look here
There was a time when I was all alone
I had a secret, thought I was gone
Somebody done me, said, Now I see
What you are doing, brother, to stay ahead of me
And when I get burnt, ha, I use a salve
And when I want loving
A mother she got to have
See, you got to have a mother for me

Popcorn
Popcorn
Popcorn
Look here, ha, good God
Look here
Do the popcorn and do the horse
Show everybody where you at, you gotta be boss
The way you do your little thing, step in a small ring
And jump back, baby, James Brown's going to do his thing, popcorn
Sometime, sometime I'm feeling low
Sometime I'm feeling low
I call another brother
Talking about Maceo
Maceo, blow your horn
A don't put no trash, ha
Play me some popcorn
Maceo, come on, popcorn
