James Brown

Lyrics

[INTRO]
Awwwww, give it up!
For the man who brought the funk,
Awwwwwwwwwww, James Brown,
Soul brother number one, uh!

[VERSE 1]
In the spotlight, he started to groove,
With a cape around his shoulders, oh, he made us move,
From "I Got You (I Feel Good)" to "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag,”
When that rhythm hits the stage, we all start to brag!

[CHORUS]
Awwwwwwwwwww James Brown,
Feel that funky sound,
Dancing to the beat, let the whole world spin around,
Awwwwwwwwwww James Brown,
With the soul so profound,
When he stepped out groovin', he shook the ground!

[VERSE 2]
From Augusta, Georgia, the legend arose,
Bringing fire and passion with style in his clothes,
Every move he made, electrified the air,
With that split and that scream, funkin' everywhere!

[CHORUS]
Awwwwwwwwwww James Brown,
Feel that funky sound,
Dancing to the beat, let the whole world spin around,
Awwwwwwwwwww James Brown,
With the soul so profound,
When he stepped out groovin', he shook the ground!

[BRIDGE]
Say it loud, I’m black and I’m proud,
In every single city, in every single crowd,
Breakin’ down the barriers, he showed us the way,
With his funky rhythms, we celebrate today!

[VERSE 3]
He taught us how to live, how to sing and to fight,
With his music in our hearts, we ignite the night,
From the soul of the stage to the hearts in the crowd,
A little bit of James, we shout it out loud!

[CHORUS]
Awwwwwwwwwww James Brown,
Feel that funky sound,
Dancing to the beat, let the whole world spin around,
Awwwwwwwwwww James Brown,
With the soul so profound,
When he stepped out groovin', he shook the ground!

[OUTRO]
Awwww, thank you, James,
For the love and the fire,
For the dance and the music that will never tire,
Forever in our souls, you'll
