Calm & Cool - James Brown

Calm and cool

I got to remain if I’m gonna get over

Got to get over

Calm and cool, got to get over

Oh‚ I got to remain

Calm and cool

Calm if I wanna get over

Got to get over

Got to be cool to keep my head sober

Got to get over

I can’t get drunk

I better calm 'cause I know what I got to do

It’s in my mind‚ and I‚ and I better come through

To protect you

Sometimes I, I get lonely

I get so lonely, baby

Just thinking‚ thinking of the time that we had

So nice, so cool, so calm

But then it makes me feel so beautiful

I feel so beautiful

And then‚ and then I feel, I feel so glad, cool, and calm

When I’m lovin' you, oh, it’s so good

My, my, my, when I’m rappin', nothin' can blow me down

Calm and cool, got to get over

Got to remain calm

Calm and cool

If I wanna get over

Got to get over

Keep me calm, keep me calm

Sometimes I, I get lonely

I get so lonely, baby

Thinking of the, oh, the time that we had, so cool

So nice, so cool, so calm

So calm, intellectual, uh

Then it makes me feel so beautiful

I feel so beautiful

And then it, and then it makes me, oh, makes me feel so bad

Uh, so cool, so calm, uh

When I’m lovin' you, oh, it’s so good for my mind

When I’m rappin' with you, nothin' can blow me down, down, down

I got to remain calm

Got to get over

If I wanna get over

Calm and cool, got to get over

Got to be cool

Calm and cool

Keep my head sober

Got to get over

I can’t get drunk

Calm and cool

Can’t get, can’t get high

Got to get over

I better be calm

Calm and cool

'Cause I know

Gotta get over

What I got to do, do, do, do

Calm and cool

It’s in my mind, and I’d

Got to get over

And I’d, and I’d better come through

Calm and cool

To protect you

Got to get over

To protect you, protect you, you

Calm and cool

You, you, to protect you

Got to get over

Better be cool

Calm and cool

Be cool

Got to get over

Be cool, be cool

Calm and cool, got to get over

Cool and calm

Calm and cool

Cool

Got to get over
