james brown - that dood it lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
now here’s a story about
a great big old giant
ooh!
my money
my honey
and me

[verse 1]
i been digging all those stories about the west the cats have told
me and my baby cut out there, dig us up a mess of gold
the minute we find a buried treasure, i looked up and see
a great big old eight-foot giant looking dead on me

[chorus]
and that dood it, you know, and that dood it
i didn’t have no more eyes for digging up no more gold
no, no, no, no, no, no!

[verse 2]
i grabbed what i had in one hand and my baby by the other
a giant grabbed my coattail and said, “don’t you go another further”
i ripped off my coat when i was shaking the scene
but what really got my goat was when i heard my baby scream

[chorus]
an’d that dood it, ooh-wee! and that dood it
because i am not going nowhere, and leave my baby there
no, no, no, no, no, no!

[verse 3]
i put on my brakes and stopped dead in my tracks
as much as i hated the idea, i went crawling on back
i said, “look-a here, mister giant,” as i raised slowly on one knee
“i’ll do anything you say. hand my baby to me.”

[chorus]
and that dood it, mm-hmm, and that dood it
he said, “you bust that loose, and i’ll set your baby free.”
no, no, no, no, no, no!

[verse 4]
i said, “i’ll make you a proposition. it’s up to you to choose
it’s either your money or your honey. one of the two you’ll have to lose.”
i said, “mister giant, i want to thank you for taking a load off my mind
but when it come to choosin’ between my money—and my honey
i take my money—what i’m sayin’?—i mean my honey everytime.”

[chorus]
and that dood it, you know, and that dood it
now the giant got the money and i got my honey, and everybody’s feeling fine
no, no, no, no, no, no!
