Funky drummer question

[Mjukis]

Okay, I've been wondering for awhile. What is the Godfather really singing?

"I wanna rock the floor?" "I wanna bop the floor?"

Google says "I'm about to blow" but that can't be right.

 

[Reynaldo]

Sounds like "walk."

Reynaldo said:Sounds like "walk."

 

[dj_cityboy]

sound like he says "walk the floor" the first time and "bop the floor " the second time

 

[LaserWolf]

I hear, I walk the floor, I want to mop the floor.





Deciphering James Brown could be a life time job. A whole field of study.

. It's in my shed bout to work me to death. It's in my shed. I wanna mop the floor.





The song is obviously about the hard times of doing janitorial work.

In the 80's Tower used to have Japanese pressings of the James Brown CDs on closeout.





I always enjoyed reading the mangled translations of JB lyrics - shouts and grunts included.
