I Don't Believe You Heard Me (A Tribute To James Brown) - Mtume

I don’t believe you heard me

I don’t-I don’t-I don’t believe you heard me

(C'mere, little girl! Can I, can I sniff it?)

(Ah stop it, stop it, stop!)

And the girls say:

Do-do-do, do-do-do, do

Do-do-do-do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-do, do

Do-do-do-do-do

I like to funk in the night…

Oh, give up the funk in the evening!

I like to soul gritty ride

Do-do-do, do-do-do, do

Do-do-do-do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-do, do

Do-do-do-do-do (James!)

I don’t believe you heard me

I don’t-I don’t-I don’t believe you heard me

One, two, three, four!

Do-do-do, do-do-do, do

Do-do-do-do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-do, do

Do-do-do-do-do

I prefer funk in the daytime…

I like to funk in the night…

Just you and me, funk

I must do it now, I must do it now

I don’t believe you heard me

I don’t-I don’t-I don’t believe you heard me

Do-do-do, do-do-do, do

Do-do-do-do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-do, do

Do-do-do-do-do

(You can’t stay!)

I don’t believe you heard me

I don’t-I don’t-I don’t believe you heard me
