There Was A Time Lyrics - Sex Machine - James Brown

There was a day, there was a time 

When I used to play 

There was a time when I used to play 

But take me now, baby, don't worry about later 

Teach the dance I used to do 

They call it the Mashed Potato 

There was a day, now dig this 

There was a day, they call it the Jerk 

Everybody relax and watch me work

In my hometown where I used to stay 

The name of the place is Augusta, GA 

Down there we have a good time 

We don't talk 

We all get together in time, for rhythm with you 

So come and walk 

There was a day that I used to do 

The name of the dance 

They call it Boogaloo 

I may not do the dance as well as you 

But baby, you can bet your bottom dollar 

That you never hear me holler 

I do the best that I can do

There was a time, sometimes I dance 

Sometimes I dance, sometimes I clown 

But you can bet you haven't seen nothing yet 

Until you see me do the James Brown
