Testo The Payback - James Brown

Testo della canzone The Payback (James Brown), tratta dall'album Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels

Hey! Gotta, gotta payback!
(The big payback)
Revenge! I'm mad!
(The big payback)
Got to get back!
I need some get-back!
Payback!
Payback!(The big payback)
That's it! Payback!
Revenge!
I'm mad!
You get down with my girlfriend, that ain't right
Wow! Smokin'!
Hollerin' n' cussin', you wanna fight
Payback is a thing you gotta see
Hell! Brother do any damn thing to me
You sold me out for chicken change
(Yes you did)
You told me that they, they had it all arranged
You had me down, and that's a fact
And now you punk, you gotta get ready
For the big payback
(The big payback)
That's where I land, on the big payback
(The big payback)
I can do wheelin', I can do dealin'
(Yes we can)
But I don't do no damn squealin'
I can dig rappin', I'm ready! I can dig scrapping
But I can't dig that backstabbin'
(Oh no)
The brother get ready, that's a fact
Get ready you mother for the big payback
(The big payback)
Let me hit them, hit them, Fred hit them
Lord!
You took my money, you got my honey
Don't want me to see what you doin' to me
I can get back! I got to deal with you!
Gotta deal with ya, gotta deal with ya!
I... gotta deal with...!
Hey, let me tell you!
Get down with my woman, that ain't right
You hollerin' and cussing, you wanna fight
Lookie here!
Don't do me no darn favor
I don't know karate, but I know ka-razor
(Yes we do)
Hey! Get ready, that's a fact
Get ready you mother for the big payback
(The big payback)
Hey, I'm a man, I'm a man...
I'm a son of a man, but don't they tell you that pappa can
Get ready for the big payback
(The big payback)
Hit me again!
No, don't...
Get ready, I need it, I need a hit again
The same one, the same one, the same one
Hit me back
Lord!
(The big payback)
Sold me out for chicken change
You said my woman had it all arranged
Tried to make a deal, she wanted to squeal
But I had my boys on her heels
Saw what she had comin', told a lie
she broke down and she wanted to cry
I don't care what she does
She'll be doing just like she was
Take those kids and raise them up
Somebody drink out the righteous cup
Take her, take that woman, it's one place she found
Just run that mother out of town
Make her get up, make her get up, get out
Make her get up, make her get up, get out
I'm mad!
I want revenge, I want revenge, my...
(The big payback)
My patience ends, I want revenge
My patience ends, I want revenge
I want revenge, I want revenge
(The big payback)
Gonna get some hits, I need those hits
I need those hits, hit me!
Lord, I need those hits
Carry on, carry on, payback melody
(The big payback)
(The big payback)
Alright!
Da-dee-ra-da, da-dee-ra-da, da-dee-ra-da!
(The big payback)
