James Brown – I'm A Greedy Man lyrics
Pick up on this
Pick up on this

I'm a greedy man
A greedy man
I'm a greedy man
I'm a greedy man

I'm a greedy man
Now, brother, don't leave
The homework undone
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
Cause I can't do without it
Too much, but not too bad
But it's better than dying
From something that
You never had

I maybe crude sometimes it pays
But let me tell you something
I love those s*** ways

I'm a greedy man
I'm a greedy man
My name ain't Jordy
But my name is Brown
I like to love
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
Now, brother, don't leave
The homework undone, hey

I can prove myself
Take it out the back door
A man better chase her
Now, run, tell that

Lookie here, lookie here
Now good strong men
Don't grow on trees
I'm not talking just to tease

I'm a greedy man
(He's a greedy man)
Yes, I am
(He's a greedy man)...
