[Lyric] Jb (Tony Adamo)

JB
BY
Tony Adamo (February 3, 12)

Gospel testifying soul burn’n and funk bumpn’
The chitlin circuit, funky nite clubs and low pay
JB came up with a jazzified innovation of funk laid out on a foundation of R&B, soul, innovative, revolutionary organic funk built on JB’s backwoods feel for soul power
His new exciting funk brought dancin’ and partying back to the streets baby with his million sellers on the record charts
With his no nonsense and take no prisoner dance steps on stage, with his throw back jack the funk is back, with his off the music radar chillin’ technique of yellin’, screamin’, moanin’ soul funkin trance of a voice burnin up the airwaves with, “I Feel Good” and “Papa’s got a Brand New Bag,” “Cold Sweat”

Bridge:

People get up, get up on the JB yeahhhh
He’ll have you dancin’ dancin on the good foot
James Brown workin’ his ahh sex machine
Oh Yeh, We’re gonna have a funky good time wellll
Gota get up Gota get up heyy
Gota get up now wellll
Gota get up
Gota get up
Get up wellllllll
In ’56 JB hooked up with Sid Nathan of King Records and Soul Brother #1 took shape morphing into the globetrotting suitcase full of funk tones, THE GODFATHER OF SOUL and later into the hardest workin’ man in show biz
Gimme that James Brown sound rec executives were yellin’
Sly Stone, Tower of Power, Earth Wind and Fire, The Ohio Players, War,Michael Jacksos, Prince, the Fatback Band, just to name a few owe their sound to James Brown

Bridge:
Gota get up gota get up
Get up get up wellll
People gota gota get up now
