James Brown - Say It Loud ( I'm Black and I'm Proud ) <br>
<br>
Uh, with your bad self<br>
Say it louder (I got a mouth)<br>
Say it louder (I got a mouth)<br>
<br>
Look a'here, some people say we got a lot of malice<br>
Some say it's a lotta nerve<br>
I say we won't quit moving <br>
Til we get what we deserve<br>
We've been buked and we've been scourned<br>
We've been treated bad, talked about<br>
As just as sure as you're born<br>
But just as sure as it take <br>
Two eyes to make a pair, huh<br>
Brother, we can't quit until we get our share<br>
<br>
Say it loud, <br>
I'm black and I'm proud<br>
Say it loud, <br>
I'm black and I'm proud, one more time<br>
Say it loud, <br>
I'm black and I'm proud, huh<br>
<br>
I've worked on jobs with my feet and my hands<br>
But all the work I did was for the other man<br>
And now we demands a chance <br>
To do things for ourselves<br>
we tired of beating our heads against the wall<br>
And working for someone else<br>
<br>
Say it loud,<br>
I'm black and I'm proud<br>
Say it loud,<br>
I'm black and I'm proud<br>
Say it loud,<br>
I'm black and I'm proud<br>
Say it loud,<br>
I'm black and I'm proud, oowee<br>
<br>
Ooowee, ou're killing me<br>
Alright uh, you're out of sight<br>
Alright, so tough, you're tough enough<br>
Ooowee uh, you're killing me, oow<br>
<br>
Say it loud,<br>
I'm black and I'm proud<br>
Say it louder, <br>
I'm black and I'm proud<br>
<br>
Now we demand a chance to do things for ourselves<br>
We tired of beating our heads against the wall<br>
And working for someone else<br>
A look a'here, <br>
One thing more I got to say right here<br>
Now, we're people like the birds and the bees<br>
We rather die on our feet, <br>
Than keep living on our knees<br>
<br>
Say it loud,<br>
I'm black and I'm proud, hu<br>
<br>
Say it loud, <br>
I'm black and I'm proud, hu<br>
Say it loud,<br>
I'm black and I'm proud, Lord'a Lord'a Lord'a<br>
Say it loud,<br>
I'm black and I'm proud, ooooh<br>

Uh, alright now, good Lord<br>
You know we can do the boog-a-loo<br>
Now we can say we do the Funky Broadway!<br>
Now we can do, hu<br>
Sometimes we dance, we sing and we talk<br>
You know I do like to do the camel walk<br>
Alright now, hu alright, <br>
Alright now, ha<br>

We're tired of beating our heads against the wall<br>
