Super Bad Lyrics by James Brown

Star Time

1970

One, two, three, hit it
Watch me, watch me
I got it
Watch me, I got it, hey

[Verse 1]
I got something that makes me wanna shout
I got something that tells me what it's all about, heh

[Chorus]
I got soul and I'm super bad
I got soul, huh, and I'm super bad, huh

[Verse 2]
Now I got a move that tells me what to do
Sometimes I tease, ha
Now I got a move that tells me what to do
Sometimes I feel so nice, I wanna try myself a few, ha, ha

[Chorus]
I got soul and I'm super bad, ha

[Verse 3]
I'm a lover, I love to do my thing, ha
And I, and I don't need no one else, heh
Sometimes I feel so nice, good God
I jump back, I wanna kiss myself

[Chorus]
I've got soul, heh, and I'm super bad, hey
I said I'm super bad

[Bridge]
Bridge, come on
Up and down, and 'round and 'round
Up and down, all around
Right on, people, huh, let it all hang out
If you don't, brothers and sisters
Then you won't know, ha, what it's all about, huh
Gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme
Gimme, yeah {screams}
Uh, come on

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
I got the something that makes me wanna shout
I got that thing, tell me what it's all about

[Chorus]
I got soul, ha, I'm super bad, heh

[Verse 5]
Got the move that tells me what to do
Sometimes I feel so nice, I said I wanna try myself a few
Huh, huh
I, I, I, I

[Chorus]
I got soul, heh, and I'm super bad

[Bridge]
Bridge, hit me
Up and down, and all around
Right on, people, heh, let it all hang out
If you don't, brothers and sisters
Then you won't know what it's all about
Gimme, gimme
Gimme
Gimme

[Outro]
Uh, come on, come on, Robert
Come on, brother, go, Robert
Blow me some 'Trane, brother, hey
Gimme, huh
Gimme, uh
Gimme, gimme
I said I'm super bad
A super bad brother, ha, heh
Super bad, uh
Come on, Phelps, come on
Super bad
Jabo, good God, super bad
Bootsy, heh, let me hear ya, super bad
Uh
