James Brown - I Don't Want Nobody To Give Me Nothing (Open Up The Door I'll Get It Myself) lyrics
rate meI don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
Do you hear me?<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
<br />
Don't give me degeneration<br />
Give me true communication<br />
Don't give me sorrow<br />
I want equal opportunity<br />
To live tomorrow<br />
<br />
Give me schools<br />
And give me better books<br />
So I can read about myself<br />
And gain my truly looks<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
Do you hear me now, now?<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
<br />
Some of us try<br />
As hard as we can<br />
We don't want no sympathy<br />
We just wanna be a man<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
Do you hear me?<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
<br />
We got talents we can use<br />
On our side of town<br />
Let's get our heads together<br />
And get it up from the ground<br />
<br />
When some of us make money<br />
People hear about our people<br />
Gotta grab out a honey<br />
Forget about honey<br />
Do you now, let me hear, hey<br />
<br />
Come on, I got to have it<br />
Come on, I need it<br />
I got to have it, come on<br />
I got to have it, oh, ha<br />
<br />
Lordy, Lordy, Lordy<br />
Lordy, Lordy, Lordy<br />
<br />
Play with your bad self<br />
Come on, baby<br />
Come here<br />
Gotta get it<br />
<br />
Got to get myself together<br />
So many things I got to do<br />
So many things I got to do<br />
I don't need no help from you<br />
<br />
Tell everybody, everybody else<br />
All of these things, baby<br />
I got to do it myself<br />
Come on, hey<br />
<br />
I got to have it<br />
I, said I, said I<br />
Said I, said I, I<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
<br />
With you I'll sweat and blood<br />
To put out any fire and block off every plug<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
Do you hear me?<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
<br />
I'm not gonna tell<br />
You what to do<br />
I'm not gonna raise a fuss<br />
But before you make another move<br />
Let's start by taking care of us<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
Do you hear me?<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
<br />
Kids get that education<br />
And don't you take no more<br />
'Cause if we gonna get<br />
This thing together<br />
Then you got to carry the ball<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
Open up the door<br />
<br />
Open up the door<br />
Open up the door<br />
Open up the door<br />
Hey, hey, hey<br />
Hey, hey, hey<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
<br />
Can you dig the groove?<br />
Can you make the move?<br />
Can you dig the say?<br />
Can you make the pay?<br />
<br />
Dig the groove?<br />
Can you dig it?<br />
Tell me, can you dig it?<br />
Tell me, can you?<br />
<br />
Come on now, come on now<br />
Come on, come on, come on<br />
Come on<br />
<br />
Come on, all right<br />
Come on fly<br />
Hey, hey, hey<br />
<br />
Lord have mercy<br />
I got to have it<br />
Got to have it<br />
I got to have it<br />
<br />
Don't need no cupid<br />
Don't be no stupid<br />
Come on<br />
<br />
We, we don't have time to hate<br />
We need all the time we got<br />
To try to communicate<br />
<br />
Come on<br />
Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy<br />
Baby, baby, baby, baby<br />
<br />
How can I get myself together<br />
When you keep on packing your bag ?<br />
How can I get myself together<br />
When you keep on packing your bag?<br />
<br />
How can I get myself together<br />
When you keep on packing your bag?<br />
How can I get myself together<br />
When you keep on packing your bag?<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
Oh, no, no, no, no<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door<br />
I'll get it myself<br />
<br />

'Cause if we gonna get<br />
This thing together<br />
Then you got to carry the ball<br />
<br />
I don't want nobody<br />
To give me nothing<br />
Open up the door, open<br />
Open up the door<br />
<br />
Open up the door, hit it<br />
Open up, here I come<br />
Open up and let a man come in<br />
Open up, let a man come in<br />
Open up, let a man come in<br />
<br />
Here I come, here I come<br />
I'm comin' in any type of weather<br />
Comin' 'cause I got myself together<br />
Open up, open up, open up, up
