"Chuck Brown" lyrics
Wind me up, Chuck
Wind me up, Chuck
Say what
Wind me up, Chuck
Wind me up, Chuck
Ready?
Kick it
C'mon
This one goes out to everybody
If you love Go-Go
If you appreciate Go-Go
Man, I got a story for you
Listen
(C'mon)
Once I entered the Capital Centre
Performed on stage with the Go-Go inventor
Mr. Epicenter of DMV
Performed songs at the Capital lawn and invited me
What a sight to see
Chuck Brown and me
And everybody bouncin', shoutin', people crowdin'
From the rooftops to the mountains
You keep lookin' and you keep countin'
They came to see Chuck Brown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
He gets down, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
He wear the crown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
He gets down
Chuck Brown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
The Godfather of the Go-Go sound
Listen
Gold tooth and hat
Guitar and strap
He can sing and rap
No generational gap
Put Go-Go on the map
He soul searched for that
Bustin' loose is the track
And now the park is packed
And as the crowd react
You hear a loud impact
From the proud and black the drum sounds attract
From U Street to shining shoes to that
All refused to lose paid dues and tax
And rewrote the rules dropped jewels and facts
As we suppose to do when the few would ask
For a favor your neighbor entertainer
Northwest Chuck Brown way all day
Chuck Brown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
He gets down, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
He wear the crown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
He gets down
Chuck Brown, baby
Chuck Brown, baby
The Godfather of the Go-Go sound
Hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Say what
Hit it again
Let's do it for Chuck
Here we go
Wind me up, Chuck
Wind me up, Chuck
Say what
Wind me up, Chuck
Wind me up, Chuck
Say what y'all
Wind me up, Chuck
Wind me up, Chuck
What did I hear
Wind me up, Chuck
Wind me up, Chuck
It sounded good to my ear
C'mon
Hear that
Man, I remember the time I performed with him
And we was out there all night jammin'
And then we broke into something like this
C'mon
He never retired 'cause he never got tired
Always got hired, very admired
From DC to overseas he inspired
To much is given much is required
Chuck Brown, baby
Wind me up, Chuck
Say what
Wind me up, Chuck
Wind me up, Chuck
Ready?
Kick it
C'mon
This one goes out to everybody
If you love Go-Go
If you appreciate Go-Go
Man, I got a story for you
Listen
