There Was A Time |
| Uhh, lookie here, ha |
| There was a day, ha |
| There was a time, ha |
| When I used to dance, ha |
| There was a time, ha |
| When I used to prance |
| But dig me now, baby, ha |
| Don’t worry bout later |
| Dig the dance I used to do |
| They call the mashed potatos, hey |
| Uhh, ha, uhh |
| There was a dance |
| Now dig this, ha |
| There was a dance, ha |
| They call the jerk |
| Everybody relax |
| And watch me work, oww |
| Ha, in my home town |
| Where I used to stay |
| The name of the place, ha |
| Is Augusta, GA |
| Down there |
| We have a good time |
| We don’t talk, ha |
| We all get together |
| Any type of weather |
| Then we do the camel walk, oww |
| Lookie here, dig this |
| Now there was a dance |
| That I used to do |
| The name of the dance, ha |
| They call the boogaloo |
| I may not do the dance |
| As well as you, ha |
| But baby, you can |
| Bet your bottom dollar |
| You’ll never hear me holler |
| I’ll do the best |
| That I can do, oh |
| Uhh, lookie here, feeling good |
| There was a time |
| Sometime I danced |
| Lookie here |
| Sometimes I danced |
| Sometimes I clown |
| But you can bet you |
| Haven’t seen nothing yet |
| Until you’ve seen me do |
| The James Brown, ow |
