James Brown - I'm A Greedy Man Lyrics
Pick up on this, pick up on this
Ha, hey, I'm a greedy man, a greedy man
I'm a greedy man, I'm a greedy man
Hey. uh, I'm a greedy man
Hey, hey, hey
Now, brother don't leave the homework undone
Wait a minute, sister
You got to have something to sit on
Before I carry you home
Don't say I ain't got it because I can't do without it
Too much to rub but not too bad
But it's better than dying from something
That you never had
I may be crude, sometimes it pays
But let me tell you something
I love those sexy ways, ha
I'm a greedy man, I'm a greedy man
My name ain't Jodie
But my name is Brown, huh
I like to love to get down, down, down
I'm a greedy man (He's a greedy man)
I'm a greedy man
Now, brother don't leave the homework undone, hey hey, uh
Now, brother don't leave the homework undone, hey
I can prove myself, take it off the mat
The man better check himself, now run tell that
Hey, looka here, looka here
Now good strong men don't grow on trees
I'm not talking just to tease
You're made so sweet, you're made so sweet, you're so sweet
You're my pet, come over here little darlin' and wipe this sweat
I can feel ya, feel your hand now, feel your hand now
It feels so good, ha, it feels so good, ha
Hey, hey, now, brother don't (what?) leave the homework undone
Can I scream, Bobby? (One time)
Can I scream for 'em? (Go ahead) HEY, YEAH!
Huh, good to 'em, look here
Now, brother don't leave the homework undone
Looka here, I know I'm rough when I'm pleasing, ha
Stay on the case, I don't stand no teasing
'Cause I"m a greedy man (He's a greedy man)
I"m a greedy man (He's a greedy man)
Yes I are (He's a greedy man)
Ha, yes I are (He's a greedy man)
I love it (He's a greedy man)
Hey, hey (He's a greedy man)
Yeah (He's a greedy man)
Hey (He's a greedy man)
Look here now, we better tell 'em one more time (One more)
Brother, tell 'em one more time (One more)
I don't think they understand us
You better tell 'em one more time
Now, brother don't leave the homework undone
Looka here
Now Jab', he's a greedy man (He's a greedy man)
Johnny (He's a greedy man)
Dave (He's a greedy man)
Roland (He's a greedy man)
Coleman (He's a greedy man)
Cheese (He's a greedy man)
What about Cheese? (He's a greedy man)
Not Cheese (He's a greedy man)
Cheese (He's a greedy man)
Fred (He's a greedy man)
Wesley (He's a greedy man)
Fred (He's a greedy man)
Thomas (He's a greedy man)
Bobby (He's a greedy man)
Bobby (He's a greedy man)
Talkin' 'bout ya (He's a greedy man)
Talkin' 'bout ya (He's a greedy man)
I love the whistle back here
Now baby, baby, do you hear me?
Close the door, close the door, close the door, close the door, baby
Close the door, close the door
I'm a greedy man, don't tell my neighbors
Don't tell the neighbors, I don't care
I just don't want them to know that I've been here
I'm a greedy man, don't tell my neighbors
Don't tell your brother, don't tell your father
Don't let, a-don't let, a-don't, ah, ha
'Cause they know I'm a greedy man (He's a greedy man)
I... (He's a greedy man)
I'm a greedy man (He's a greedy man)
I can prove myself, taking out the fat
Ttake care of my business, now run tell that
I can prove myself, taking out the fat
Your man better check himself, now run tell that
Now I'm not talking just to tease
Good strong men don't grow on trees
Not rough when I'm pleasing
Good God, don't stand no teasing, hey
'Cause I'm a greedy man (He's a greedy man)
I'm a greedy man (He's a greedy man)
I'm going over (He's a greedy man)
I'm going over (He's a greedy man)
Going over (He's a greedy man)
Going to the bridge (He's a greedy man)
Going over (He's a greedy man)
Hey, yeah, huh, come on...

PICK UP ON THIS! PICK UP ON THIS! PICK UP ON THIS! Salt n Peppa sampled for Push It.
“Sister: You gotta have something to sit on before I carry you home!” Is this “Baby’s Got Back”, but 20 years earlier?
super bad
I love his voice... So sad cant hear again on live. Please RIP... with Love, from Tokyo, Japan
James Brown ain't dead- just press play! GOOD GAWD! AIN'T IT FUNKY NOW!✊🏾
i was n° 666
He didn't write the music.
Mostly he walked in on jam sessions and added words.
There's a series of interviews with Jabo and Stubblefeild.
Ask a kid I used to scrape up my pennies and then run down to the record store and buy the latest James Brown record. I used to listen to his records all day and watch his face spin around on the 45! Here it is 2019 and butane James is still my nigga!
Now that's Super Soul
One of generously flavored FUNk tune from MR JB
This was the party record in 1971.
what about Cheese? not Cheese! Cheeeeese!!
That's absolutely an honour to be put on the label.
I’m a Greedy man 👨🏿👧🏿👧🏿👧🏿👧🏿
Yes i are. Go JB!
I like to love..get down down...
Martin Lawrence ain't
got nothing on that!
About the same time, a recording, maybe same session James Brown asks everyone in the band Where You From? Where is that recording?
escapism
I'M A GREEDY MAN BOBBY HE'S A GREEDY MAN
What about cheez, not cheez
Não me lembro,mas mr paulo Santos e equipe Black Power, com certeza são a minha resposta!..
I'm a dutch guy, this man was my hero, he came to the netherlands a few times I've been all his shows, the hardest working man in showbiz, unforgettable
freddie fulton
we'll be back with more funk and soul ahh right after these messages yeah go head go head godfather of the the soul and funk connection yyyyyaaawwwww 😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉.
James wore an afro on the Polydor
label.
I REMEMBER I WAS IN THE 7TH GRADE WHEN THIS CAME OUT AND THERE WASN'T ANY NEIGHBORHOOD IN NEW YORK THAT WASN'T PLAYING THIS SONG LOUD ESPECIALLY AT THE BLOCK PARTIES🎼🎤🎺🎷🎹🎸📻🎼
never heard a live version though, been looking for years. I think he never included it in his live performances.. Sad!
Best ring tone ever. "Pick up on this..."
Pick up on this!!!
Best way ever to count things off.
Damn this man was something else, I used to listen to this music and just loved the way it sound but he has a hell of a lot of hidden stuff in this song.
I like how he says “My name ain’t Jody, but my name is Brown.” I see a strong nod to Johnny Taylor’s hit song “Jody Got Your Girl And Gone.”
It's very tough song
Good strong men don't grow on trees, I'm not talking just to please!!!!!! LOVE IT!!!
The band and that legendary Brown and Byrd tag team equals Mind blowing Funk!
6:56😉
2:27😂
Parts 1 and 50.....!
My Name Ain't Jody, but My Name is Brown, I Like To Love And Get Down, Down, Down...
I'm a needy man. Now brother, I do need more than what Iv'e got.
SUPREME FUNK
Now brother don't leave the homework undone cause Jody will come in and finish it for ya.
run tell that
Legendary E.P.A The G. Bay Area P.L.R.
Talkin' 'bout ya Bobby!
I am a greedy man.can't get enough close the door baby.
This should be the new motivation song for studying hard, making the grades and earning those college degrees !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And licking pussy
The Godfather is telling my life.
he was singing truth.
Inspired rapping from JB.
Now brother don't leave the homework undone......CLASS
"..Can i scream Bobby!? Go ahead!" :)
And he did...
Go ahead!
