Sex Machine

Give me the fever in a cold sweat.
The way i like it is the way it is;

Get on up and then shake your money maker,
Shake your money maker........

james brown - can t get any harder

(Get up)

(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

You're beautiful, mama
Most of all your arms
There's no doubt, you're out of sight
Out of sight, out of sight

james brown - prisoner of love

Alone from night to night you'll find me
Too weak to break these chains that bind me
I need no shackles to remind me
I'm just a prisoner, don?t let me be a prisoner

From 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, don?t let me be a prisoner

What's the good of my caring if someone is sharing those arms, but not with me
Although she has another, and I can't have another for I'm, I?m not free

She's in my dreams awake or sleeping
Upon my knees to her I'm creeping
My very life, my life, is in her keeping
I'm just a prisoner, don?t let me be a prisoner

Prisoner of love, you made me a prisoner
Prisoner of love, and you made me love you
Prisoner of love, take the shackles of love and go away
Prisoner of love, cause I love you so much now
Prisoner of love, you you you, yooouuu made me a prisoner

Thanks to Art Turco for these lyrics

james brown - livin in america

Superhighways - coast to coast - easy takin' anywhere -
On the transcontinental overload
Just slide behind the wheel.
How does it feel when there's no destination that's too far

And somewhere on the way
You might find out who you are.

Living in america - eye to eye - station to station.
Living in america - hand in hand - across the nation.
Living 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 awake
On a black coffee and a hard roll.
You might have to walk a fine line
You might take a hard line

But everybody's workin' overtime.

Living in america - eye to eye - station to station....

I live in america - i live in america - wait a minute -
You may not be lookin' for the promised 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
Pittsburgh p. a. - pittsburgh p. a.

New york city - new york city
Kansas city - kansas city

Atlanta - atlanta.
Chicago and l. a.

Living in america - hit me - living in america - iiving in
America.
I live in america - staying alive - we'll make the prime.
I live in america - hey
I know what it means.

Living in america - hit me - eye to eye - station to station.
Living in america - so nice - would you better stop?
Living in america - i feel good

james brown - how do you stop

Hard bodies
Soft emotions
So fast, so smart
The world at your feet
But what about your heart?
Fame and power can't hold you tight
In the weak (?) end of the night

How do you stop (tell me)
Before it's too late?
You choose and you lose
If you hesitate
How do you stop (tell me)
Before it's too late?
You think love will wait
You don't hold on
And then it's gone (2x)

You've had some success
A new couple of friends
You're caught in the good life
You thought it would never, never end
One day then you're in your prime
...
...
...hands of time

How do you stop
Before it's too late? (ooh)

You choose and you lose
If you hesitate
How do you stop
Before it's too late?

You don't hold on
And then it's gone

How do you stop, a runaway train?
How do you stop, the cold, cold rain?
How do you stop, love from leaving?
How do you stop, ...

How do you stop (how do you stop?)
Before it's too late? (how do you stop?)
How do you stop? (say it now!)
How do you stop? (say it again!)

How do you stop (say it)
Before it's too late?
You choose and you lose
If you hesitate (hesitate)
How do you stop
Before it's too late?
(etc...)

james brown - i m a greedy man

Pick up on this

I'm a greedy man
A greedy man

I'm a greedy man
Now, brother, don't leave
The homework undone
Hey, hey, hey
Now, brother, don't leave
The homework undone

Wait a minute, sister
You got to have
Something to sit on
Before I carry you home

Don't say I ain't got it
Cause I can't do without it
Too much, but not too bad
But it's better than dying
From something that
You never had

I maybe crude sometimes it pays
But let me tell you something
I love those sexy ways

I'm a greedy man
I'm a greedy man
My name ain't Jordy
But my name is Brown
I like to love
Get down, down, down

I'm a greedy man
(He's a greedy man)
I'm a greedy man

Now, brother, don't leave
The homework undone
Now, brother, don't leave
The homework undone, hey

I can prove myself
Take it out the back door
A man better chase her
Now, run, tell that

Lookie here, lookie here
Now good strong men
Don't grow on trees
I'm not talking just to tease

I'm a greedy man
(He's a greedy man)
Yes, I am
(He's a greedy man)...

james brown - there it is

Help, there it is
Hey, so so, need taste
Mind is right
Hey, in the right place
Doing you do
Like you're suppose to be
Give up time
Run the game on me
Then do it in the real side
Staying at your own
Be satisfied
Meeting at the big house
Get down

Let everybody know
Let everybody know
Man to squeeze
His sister down
Get up and do what, what you can
Get up and do what you can
So to work a seat
Game don't mean nothing to me
Because you can't run a game on me
Told me to thank to me
Don't mean a thing
Hey, cut it, come on

Playing the cook in the dark sun
Wax wet don't have fun
Time to get short
We got school
Cooking time, mama
We got to prove
Hey, lone at your seat
Then came on to me
Lone at your seat
Came, told me to go back to me
Lone at zoo
Hey, cut it

Hit it

I've been thinkin'
On the real side
Staying, showing enough
To be satisfied
Meeting at a big house
So we all get down
Let everybody know

Help, there it is, there it is
You got a neat thing
You got a neat thing
What is a neat thing
I got a neat thing
Get up, do what you can
Get up, do what you can
Till bubble to see
Can't win a game
Mean nothing to me
Get home, do it
Get home, do it
You got to know it
So you can do it
Playin', come on do it, come on
Hey, cut it, hey, get up

Playing, cutting in the dark
Wiggling, I wanna... I wanna beat him

Get it... hey, get it
Get going, get out, baby...

james brown - money won t change you

Told my darling that I had to go
It's your body, I don't care no more
Although you had me, time to get along

Money won't change you, momey won't change you...
But time will take your own do

Then you know, how to be treated
Hold me, baby, tell the world
That you're my woman, my only girl

Money won't change you, money won't change you...
But time will take your own do
I know you're happy
To know you're happy, and to know you're gone
Money won't change you
Money won't change you, mama
I said, money won't change you
But time will take you own

I said, put a smile as good as gold
But that smile now can't be sold
You said, baby, that you had to go
Back to somebody, I don't care no more
Told your friends I was a fool
The trouble's, woman, that you've got to go through
Other lover won't take me home
I have a...
Even in the street, even in the car too
Mashed potatoes and boogaloo
C'mon baby and let yourself go...
It's your body, I don't care no more
C'mon baby, c'mon baby, everybody, everybody
Need your hand, need your hand
Let me tell you I, I, I...
I'm down so long...
