Get on the Good Foot Songtext
von James Brown

Qué pasa people, qué pasa, hit me!

Get on down
I wanna get on the good foot
Ho! Good foot
I got to get on the good foot

Going down to the crib
Let all hang out
Where soulful people knows what it′s about
Going down to the crib
And let it all hang out
Where soulful people knows what it's about

Where people do the sign and take your hands
And dancin′ to the music James Brown band

They're dancing on the good foot
I got to get on the good foot
Got to do it on the good foot
Do it with the good foot


Said the long-hair hippies and the afro blacks
They all get together across the tracks
And they party
Ho! On the good foot
You know they dance on the good foot
Dance on the good foot

Ain't nothing goin′ on
But the rent
A whole lotta bills and my money′s spent
And that's on my bad foot

You know my face gettin′ short and I got the blues
I got a funky job and I paid my dues on the good foot
Ho! On the good foot
I got to get on the good foot
Hey! On the good foot
Get on the good foot
Come over!

Hit it there
You got to get it
Get it
Sharper now!

Come on, get it


On the good foot
On the good foot
Ho! On the good foot
Get on the good foot

On the good foot
On the good foot
Ho! Get on the good foot
On the good foot

Bass! Bass!

Get it down
Get it down
Ho!
Now bass

Play on it now

Come on
Get it
Get it
Get on the good foot

I got to get on the good foot

Get on the good foot
Ho!
Take care of business, sister, I'm your fella
Stay on the case, you got to be mellow
Oh stay on the good foot

I don′t know what he says she says or whatever
The only way I can take care of me
I gotta keep me together
Stay on the good foot
Stay on the good foot
I can deal with life and organise me, on the good foot

I got to get on the good foot
Hey! On the good foot
Get on the good foot
Stay on the good foot

I got to get on the good foot
Dance on the good foot
Qué pasa people, qué pasa people, hombre
Hasta mañana mi cielo

Get it on the good foot
Hombre, on the good foot
On the good foot
Oh yes I know, on the good foot
Get on the good foot, hey
Going on for 9 to 7 and get on the good foot

On the good foot
I got to get on the good foot
Stay on the good foot
Get on the good foot
Stay on the good foot

Get on the good foot
Got to get on the good foot
Get on the good foot
Qué pasa people
Get on the good foot
