James Brown
Talkin’ Loud and Saying Nothing (Part 2)
[Intro]
I said you're phony
I said you’re phony
OH!

[Verse 1]
You can't tell me
How to run my life down
And you can't tell me
How to keep my business sound
You can’t tell me
What I'm doing wrong
When you keep jiving
And singing that same old funny song

[Chorus]
You're like a dull knife
Just ain't cutting
You're just talking loud
And saying nothing
Just saying nothing
Just saying nothing
Just saying nothing
Just saying...wait a minute

[Bridge]
Shape up your bag
Don't worry 'bout mine
My thing together
And I'm doing fine
Good luck to you over there
Mister Loud and Wrong
Just keep on singing
Just keep on singing
Just keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
That same old funny song
Just keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
That same old funny song
That same old funny song
That same old funny song
That same old funny song
Just keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Bobby (Yeah), the groove is so great here (Yeah)
I want the engineer to let the tape keep running (Yeah)
Now we’re gonna do something funny right here (Mr. Engineer)
We’re gonna do something funny right here
So keep the tape running, Ron (Yeah)
Keep the tape running, we're gonna do something funny right here
We’re gonna stop real quick, and rap a little
And then we gon' keep it going
Wait a minute, stop, fellas, cuh, huh
I says keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
Keep on singing (Keep on singing)
HEY!

[Outro]
Good God, call it, ha
You can't tell me what I'm doing wrong
When you, Jimmy, Jimmy, can’t do your own
You can't tell me how to feel, boy
What, when (You're doing me wrong), ha
When you know I'm grown (Yeah)
You can't tell me how to run my mess
You can't tell me, you can't tell me
You can't tell me, you can't tell me
Just can't use me like a woman throw away her dress, ha
You can't tell me, uh, how to run my mess, ha
Shape, shape, shape, shape, shape, shape, shape
Sh..ape, shape, shape, hard for me to say sometimes
In my thing here
Said, sh...ape, ha, shape up your bag, don't worry 'bout mine
My thing together, I'm doing fine
