Otis Redding › Lyrics › Papa's Got a Brand New Bag

Come in sister, papa's in the den
Ain't too hip 'bout that new breed dance
I ain't no drag
Papa's got a brand new bag

He's doing the jerk, he's doing the fly
Don't play him cheap, you know he's not shy
The mash potatoes, the alligator
Jump back and Jack, see you later alligator

Come in sister, papa's in the den
Ain't too hip 'bout that new breed dance
Ain't no drag
Papa's bought himself a brand new bag

Come on now, hey, hey
Come on now, hey, hey come on
He's out of sight, he's uptight
Come on and groove me
Oh you're out of sight

Papa's got a brand new bag
Papa got it, Papa got it
Got it, got it, bought it, got it
Good man, good man
Got it, got it, got it, got it
Got it, papa's got a brand new bag

Soul ma, so
Prove me
He uptight, be out of sight
Mr.Bidedit, that's my name
Got it, yeah

He doing the twist, he doing the fly
Don't play him cheap, you know he not shy
The mash potatoes, the alligator
Jump back and Jack
I'll see you later, alligator

Come in sister, papa's in the den
Ain't too hip 'bout that new breed dance
Ain't no drag
Papa's got a brand new bag

Come on, hey hey
Come on, hey hey
Come on, hey hey
Jerk, jerk
Hold on, I'm comin'
Hold on, I'm comin'
Got to, got to

They're groovin', they're groovin'
They're groovin', they're groovin'

Come in sister, papa's in the den
Ain't too hip 'bout that new breed dance
It ain't no drag
My mammy's got a brand new bag

Come on, hey hey
Comin', comin'
Got it, I got it

It's in my feet, I got it
It's in my head, I got it
On my shoulder, I got it
In my knees, I got it
In the backpart, I got it
In my shoulder again, I got it
Soul man I got it
Soul man
