Lyrics Papa Don't Take No Mess - James Brown

Papa Don't Take No Mess

Yeah, Papa don’t take no mess
Papa don’t take no mess
Papa is the man who can understand
How a man has to do
Whatever he can, hot me
Papa don’t, Papa don’t, Papa don’t
Papa don’t take no mess, no
He don’t take no mess
Now Papa might grin
Drink a little taste of gin
Bet his last ten on
A little game of skin, hit me
Papa don’t take no mess
Papa don’t take no mess
Papa don’t, Papa don’t, Papa don’t
Papa don’t, Papa don’t
Papa don’t take no mess, hey, hey
Papa digs the chick
If she look real slick
Papa rap is very quick
He defintely ain’t no trick
Oh, yeah
Papa don’t, Papa don’t, Papa don’t
Papa don’t, Papa don’t
Papa don’t take no mess
Don’t take no mess
Wait, wait a minute
Lookie here, Papa
Don’t take, Papa likes
Cause when Papa gets uptight
He knows he’s right
You got yourself a fight, hit me
Papa don’t take no mess
Papa don’t take no mess
Papa don’t, Papa don’t, Papa don’t
Papa don’t, Papa don’t, Papa don’t
Papa don’t take no mess
Oh, yeah, alright!
Papa is the man
Who will take a stand
Papa don’t take no mess
Papa don’t, Papa don’t
Papa don’t, don’t, Papa don’t
Look, dig this
Papa didn’t cuss
He didn’t raise a whole lotta fuss
But when we did wrong
Papa beat the hell out of us
Papa don’t, Papa don’t
Papa don’t, Papa don’t
Papa don’t, Papa don’t
Papa don’t take no mess
Papa don’t take no mess
I saw Papa cry when he
Thought that I would die
Lookie here
I saw papa cry
I saw Papa cry when he
Thought that I would die
He says something was in his eye
I knew it was a lie
Mama said Papa’s smart
Papa got a whole lotta heart
And Papa would do his part
When the game get hard, hit me
