James Brown
Answer to Mother Popcorn (I Got a Mother For You)
[Verse 1]
Oh, I'm not fat, and I'm not tall
I'm not a girl with skinny legs at all
But you like them boss, you like them proud
Then I'm the girl who's gonna shout out loud
I'm so true, I got a mother for you, popcorn

[Verse 2]
I remember a time when you were all alone
You had your thing together, that secret made you warm
So I would raise my mother, take a lot of time and pain
And make sure you never, never, never have to look again
What I said was true, you see
I've got a mother for you

[Bridge]
But you see, but you see
But you see, you've always been close to me
When I wanna see you, I phonе, never send a lеtter
Sometimes I wanna call you father, but something else is better
So go on and do the Camel Walk and that bad popcorn
And this mother, I'll stay a secret, and you'll still be alone
Be alone, you'll be alone
You'll be alone, baby, nobody but you
Oh, you'll be alone
[Verse 3]
Oh, I'm not fat, and I'm not tall
I'm not a girl with skinny legs at all
But if you like them boss, baby, you like them proud
Then I'm the girl who's gonna shout way out loud
I'm so true, I got a mother for you, popcorn

[Verse 4]
I remember a time when you were all alone
You had your thing together, and that secret made you gone
So I would raise my mother, take a lot of time and pain
And make sure you never, baby, you'll never have to look again
What I said was true, you see
Oh, I've got a mother for you

[Outro]
But you see, but you see
But you see, you've always been close to me
When I wanna see you, I phone, never send a letter
Sometimes I wanna call you father, but something else is better
So go on and do the Camel Walk and that bad popcorn
And this mother will stay a secret, and you'll still be alone
You'll be alone, oh, you'll be alone
Nobody but you, you'll be alone
Can you hear me say it? Oh, oh-oh
Oh, you'll be alone, baby, you'll be alone
I remain that secret, and no one else will know
