Papa’s Got a Brand New Bag (Live / Set 2 / Sunday, April 10, 1966)

Come in, sister
Papa's in the den
Ain't too hip
On that new breed thing
Ain't no drag
Papa's got a brand new bag

He's doing The Jerk
He's doing The Fly
Don't play...

Wait there, hold it
Let's do that again
I know you're alright but we ain't no James Brown
If we're gonna sing it them orders right, wait another second, damn
Yeah, thought you would like that, now we're gonna sing James Brown
Do it again y'all (who's James Brown?)
Hey
