Like It Is, Like It Was - James Brown, The J.B.'s

New York City’s alright, but I wanna go home

Let me tell you, I wanna go home

Is it alright if a man need to go home?

I don’t believe you understand me, I wanna go home

Let me be proud of where I came from when I go home

I know he wanna go home

I know he wanna go home

Hey hey, let me go home

Let me go home

I remember Memphis Slim said, feelin' lowdown, act like a clown

I really don’t know what to do, what to do

Feelin' so blue, just thinking of you

You didn’t think I could do that, did you, fam?

I wonder just where you could be, you could be

Feelin' so blue, just messing around with the blues

With the blues, with the blues, with the blues, with the blues

With the blues

Haha, you know, let me remind you that the fellas

We say we’re down and out in New York City

We’re down and out in New York City…

So long, oh, I hate to see you go

So long, oh, I hate to see you go
