James Brown - Funky President (People It's Bad) lyrics

rate me

Funkytown, nasty

(Hey, listen to the man)

Yeah, I'm the Godfather (baby)

People, people

We got to get over

Before we go under

People, people

We got to get over

Before we go under

Hey, country

Didn't say what you meant

Just changed

Brand new funky President

Stock market going up

Jobs going down

And ain't no funking

Jobs to be found

Taxes keep going up

I changed from a glass

Now I drink out of a paper cup

It's getting bad

People, people

We got to get over

Before we go under

Listen to me

Let's get together and raise

Let's get together

And get some land

Raise our food like the man

Save our money like the Mob

Put up a fight down on the job

Tell em, Godfather

Turn up your funk motor

Get down and praise the Lord

Get sexy, sexy

Get funky and dance

Love me, baby, love me nice

Don't make it once

Can you make it twice

I like it

People, people

We got to get over

Before we go under

People, people

Well, well, well

Before we go under

Turn on your funk motor

I know it's tough

Turn on your funk motor

Until you get enough

Hey, give yourself a

Chance to come through

Tell yourself, I can

Do what you can do

Hey, listen to the man

I'm the Godfather

Payback, cold-blooded

People, people

People, people

Hey, people, people

Don't you see what's going on

People, people

We got to get together

Get on the good foot

Change it, yeah

Got to get together

And get some land

Raise our food just like the man

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

I got to say it again

We got to get together

And buy some land

Raise our food just like the man

Save our money, do like the Mob

Put up your fight right on the job

We gotta get over

Before we go under

Time's getting short, Lord

Country, do you know

Just what I meant

We just changed, we got

A brand new funky President

I need to be the Mayor

So I could change

Some things around here

I need to be the Governer

I need to be the Governer<br />

<br />
