James Brown
I Don’t Want Nobody To Give Me Nothing (Open Up The Door, I’ll Get It Myself) (Part 2)
[Verse 1]
So many things I've got to do
So many things I've got to do
I don't no help from you
Tell everybody, everybody else
All of these things, baby, ha
I could do it myself
Come on, hey
I got to have it
I, said I, said I
Said I, said I, I

[Chorus]
I don't want nobody to give me nothing
Open up the door, I'll get it myself
I don't want nobody to give me nothing
Open up the door, I'll get it myself

[Verse 2]
We've used our sweat and blood
To put out every fire, and block up every flood

[Chorus]
I don't want nobody to give me nothing
Open up the door, I'll get it myself
Do you hear me?
I don't want nobody to give me nothing
Open up the door, I'll get it myself
I don't want nobody to give me nothing
Open up the door, huh, I'll get it myself
[Verse 3]
I'm not gonna tell you what to do
I'm not gonna raise a fuss
But before you make another move
Let's start by taking care of us

[Chorus]
I don't want nobody to give me nothing
Open up the door, huh, I'll get it myself
Do you hear me?
I don't want nobody to give me nothing
Open up the door, huh, I'll get it myself

[Verse 4]
Kids, get that education
And don't you take no fall
'Cause if we gonna get this thing together
Then you got to carry the ball

[Chorus]
I don't want nobody to give me nothing
Open up the door, open up the door
Open up the door, open up the door
Open up the door, hey hey hey hey hey hey
I don't want nobody to give me nothing
Open up the door, huh, I'll get it myself
[Outro]
Ha, can you dig the groove?
Can you make the move?
Can you dig the say?
Can you make the play?
