I transcribed this from several samples: THAT DOOD IT (excerpt) Rosemary McCoy, Rudy Toombs As sung by James Brown ...Ooh! My money— My honey— And me. I been diggin' all those stories about the West the cats have told. Me an' my baby cut out there, dig us up a mess o' gold. The minute we find a buried treasure, I looked up an' see A great big ol' eight-foot giant lookin' dead on me. An' that dood it, you know, an' that dood it. I didn't have no more eyes for diggin' up no more gold. No, no, no, no, no, no! I grabbed what I had in one hand and my baby by the other. A giant grabbed my coattail and said, "Don't you go another fu'ther...." |

27 Jan 12 - 01:15 PM (#3297320) Subject: Lyr Add: THAT DOOD IT From: Jim Dixon THAT DOOD IT Rosemary McCoy, Rudy Toombs As sung by James Brown on "The Federal Years: 1956-1960" (2006) Now here's a story about— A great big ol' giant— Ooh!— My money— My honey— An' me. 1. I been diggin' all those stories about the West the cats have told. Me an' my baby cut out there, dig us up a mess o' gold. The minute we find a buried treasure, I looked up an' see A great big ol' eight-foot giant lookin' dead on me. CHORUS: An' that dood it, you know, an' that dood it. I didn't have no more eyes for diggin' up no more gold. No, no, no, no, no, no! 2. I grabbed what I had in one hand an' my baby by the other. A giant grabbed my coattail an' said, "Don't you go another fu'ther." I ripped off my coat when I was shakin' the scene, But what really got my goat was when I heard my baby scream. CHORUS: An' that dood it, ooh-wee! An' that dood it. 'Cause I ain't goin' nowhere, an' leave my baby there. No, no, no, no, no, no! 3. I put on my brakes an' stopped dead in my tracks. As much as I hated the idea, I went crawlin' on back. I said, "Look-a here, Mister Giant," as I raised slowly on one knee. "I'll do anything you say. Hand my baby to me." CHORUS: An' that dood it, mm-hmm, an' that dood it. He said, "You bust that loose, an' I'll set your baby free." No, no, no, no, no, no! 4. I said, "I'll make you a proposition. It's up to you to choose. It's either your money or your honey. One of the two you'll have to lose." I said, "Mister Giant, I want to thank you for takin' a load off my mind, But when it come to choosin' between my money—an' my honey— I take my money—what I'm sayin'?—I mean my honey ever' time." CHORUS: An' that dood it, you know, an' that dood it. Now the giant got the money an' I got my honey, an' ev'rybody's feelin' fine. No, no, no, no, no, no! |
