Original James Brown version
[Spoken:] Fellas, I'm ready to get up and do my thing, (go ahead, go ahead). I wanna get into it, man, you know, (go ahead). Like a, like a sex machine, man, (yeah, go ahead), moving, doing it, you know. Can I count it off? (Go ahead).
One, two, three, four!
Get up, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
Stay on the scene, (get on up), like a sex machine, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
Stay on the scene, (get on up), like a sex machine, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
Stay on the scene, (get on up), like a sex machine, (get on up)
Wait a minute, shake your arm, then use your form
Stay on the scene like a sex machine
You gotta have the feeling sure as you're born
Get it together, right on, right on
Get up, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
Huh!
Get up, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
You said, you said you got, you said the feeling, you got to get
You give me fever in a cold sweat
The way I like it is the way it is
I got mine, don't worry about his
Get up, (get on up)
Stay on the scene, (get on up), like a sex machine, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
[Spoken:] Bobby, Should I take 'em to the bridge? (Go ahead). Take 'em on to the bridge, (take 'em to the bridge). Should I take 'em to the bridge? (Yeah, go ahead). Take 'em to the bridge? (Go ahead). Hit me now!
Come on, stay on the scene, like a sex machine
The way I like it is the way it is
I got mine, (dig it), he's got his
Stay on the scene, like a loving machine
Stay on the scene, like a loving machine
Stay on the scene
[Spoken:] I wanna count it off one more time now, (go ahead). You wanna hear it like it did on the top, fellas? (Yeah!) Hear it like it did on the top? (Yeah). Hit it now!
Get on up, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
Get on up, (get on up)
Stay on the scene, (get on up), like a loving machine, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
Taste, (get on up)
Being, (get on up)
Taste, (get on up)
Being, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
Stay on the scene, (get on up), like a sex machine, (get on up)
You gotta have the feeling, (get on up)
Sure as you're born, (get on up)
Get it together, right on, right on
Right on, right on, (right on, right on)
Right on, right on, (right on, right on)
Right on, right on, (right on, right on)
Get up, (get on up)
Get up, (get on up)
And then, shake your money maker
Shake your money maker
