You got to have a mother for me
One, two
One, two, three, cut
Alright
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Some like ′em short and some like 'em tall
Some like ′em fat, skinny legs and all
But I like 'em boss, and I like 'em proud, ha
And when they walk, you know they draw a crowd
See, ha, you gotta have a mother for me, ha
Hey, hey, there was a time when I was all alone
I had a secret, thought I was gone
But somebody dug me and said, "Now I see
What you′re doin′ to stay ahead of me"
But I said, "But I told you when I get burnt, I use Sav
And when I want lovin', a mother she has to have"
See (ha), alright, you got to have a mother for me
Oh!
You see, got to have a mother for me
When you walk, all the guys talk
You see, hey!
Alright now
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Now, if you′re tall and pretty, slim and dark
That's alright too, if you got that question mark
Looka here, you can′t have everything going, you got to have a part
If you got a mother, baby, you know you can't take a halt
See, you got to have a mother for me
One more thing
Do the Funky Four Corners, go on and do the horse
Show everybody where you′re at, and now, I know you got to be boss
So when you start doing your little thing, stop at a small ring, ha
But get back, baby, James Brown is gonna do his thing
You see, ha, you got to have a mother for me, alright
Your high-heeled sneakers, still alright
Your slip-in mules are out of sight
But as long as you groove when you walk
And when you're fast, the fellas talk
You see, ha, you got to have a mother for me
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh
Looka here, hey, hey, hey, hey
Uh, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Maceo, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Maceo, oh
Bring it up
Oh, no, no, no, no, no
Oh, yeah, ha
Baby, let me see you shake when you want
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Wait a minute, your high-heeled sneakers are still alright
Your slip-in mules are still out of sight
But as long as you're grooving
You prove that once you walk and once you pass
The fellas begin to talk
You see, you got to have a mother for me
Now, there was a time when I was all alone
I had a secret baby, thought I was gone
But somebody dug me and said, "Now I see
What you′re doin′ brother to stay ahead of me"
But I said, "I told you when I get burnt, I use a Sav
And when I want my lovin', a mother she got to have"
I said when I want my lovin′
When I want my lovin'
When I, when I, when I, when I, when I, yeah
When I want my lovin′, when I want my lovin'
When I want my lovin′, oh
I got the heaven, hey, hey, hey, give it to me
Got the heaven, hey, hey, hey, hey, give it to me
I, I, I, I, I want mine, I want mine, I want mine
I want mine, hey, hey, hey, oh
I want mine, I, I, I, I got it, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah!
Huh, mother for me
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh!
Maisie oh, Maisie oh (oh, yeah)
Babe
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, give it to me, baby, I got to have it, see
Oh, yeah
Alright, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ah!
