James Brown - Marcella Detroit

Tonight it feels like

The start of World War III

Looks are like arrows

And words are enemies

You with your silly games

And me trying to work it out

Take my hand and lead me down

Cause tonight I feel like James Brown

Now I know how it feels

To be lonely on a stage

Won’t your conscience or your humor

Keep you from walking away

It’s so hard not to fight

But I think I’ll let you

Wear the crown

Take my hand and lead me down

Cause tonight I feel like James Brown

Human nature is blind and thick

It’s chewing on this anger

That makes you sick

If we threw away our stones and sticks

What other games we could play

Please leave me some dignity

How low can I bow

Somebody take my hand and lead me down

Cause tonight I feel like James Brown

Somebody help me now

Please…

So take my hand

I’m gonna leave you now

Cause tonight I feel like

James Brown
