There Was A Time - Live At The Apollo Theater/1967

There was a day
There was a time
When I used to date
There was a time when I used to praise

But dig me now
Baby, don't worry about later
Dig the dance I used to do
They call her Mashed Potatoes

There was a day
Now dig this
There was a dance
They call a 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 then we do
The camel walk

Lookey here, dig this
Now there was a dance that I used to do
The name of the dance
They call it Boogaloo
I may not do the dance as well as you#VERSE
But baby, you can bet your bottom dollar
You never hear me holler
I'll do the best that I can do

Lookey here, feeling good
There was a time, sometimes I dance, lookey here
Sometimes I dance, sometimes I clown
But you can bet you haven't seen nothing yet
Until you see me do the James Brown
