George Clinton - Uncle Jam lyrics

All right All you inductees fall out and form some kinda line or something I want all you young ladies to stick your chests out And get your hips to move! 'Cause Uncle Jam wants you to join his army! Come on, y'all I know it's early, but you gotta get down Go on and rock, Sue, rock! I'm a soldier, in the army, of Uncle Jam Come on and work out in that foxhole Ain't no need to get dirty, but you can get down This is the army with the mission to rescue dance music from the blahs We're not gonna do it by fighting--Get up! Get down! Uncle Jam wants you to funk with him La da dee da dee dee dee dee da You said you'd be ready, if he called on you Now he's a righteous kind of leader Just demanding funk and groove from you Get down I see you out there in that field, riding on that 88, feeling ok haHEY! So you want to dance? You've got to join Uncle Jam's army Pick your feet up Come on y'all If you want to dance? You've got to join Uncle Jam's army Alright you mugs- this is Uncle Jam's army, see? And we're on groove maneuvers, see I don't want nobody sweatin' til I tell ya You gotta you gotta you got to Marching in the foxhole All right you mugs, so you want to dance? This is Uncle Jam's army, and we're on groove maneuvers, see You've got to join Uncle Jam's army Just marching to the groove, honey Got it going on the good foot Gotta get on up Happy feet, happy foot, happy time Marching in this army Marching in this army, see Rescuing dance music from the blahs Rescuing dance music from the blahs Wake up! Come on, y'all Now here's where we start steppin' Like we ought to do You've got to join Uncle Jam's army Wear those colors that make you look like you belong Hey boy, cut your hair! Come give it to me March to the left, right, march to the left On and rock now, funky, y'all, come on and rock now March to your left, it's funky now? to the tune of Jam Get it honey I know you're groovin' when you're movin' now, come on And get funky with your Uncle, baby I'm your thrill sergeant! Uncle Jam wants you to funk with him La da dee da dee dee dee dee da If he calls on you Allright you mugs, so you want to dance, hey? Uncle Jam wants you! Uncle Jam wants you! I - I don't think ya heard me Uncle Jam wants you Uncle Jam wants you to funk with him Come on, I said he wants you He wants you to jam with him Hey boy, whatcha doing sweatin' over there Didn't I tell ya, ya ain't supposed to be sweatin', boy? You-You-You You gotta you gotta you got to You got to make me feel good Oh there's something coming over me I think I'll join, join the army Sacrificing everything but the beat Sometimes we got to fall in the foxhole called life And I look up, and I don't see nobody trying to help me out Ohh, I feel good tonight Now that was allright But some of you all ain't doin' what you're supposed to do I just see a few hands clapping out there Uncle Jam's army, here- yeah Disturbing the peace at the bridge of the river quiet Marching in the name of the groove No AWOP-absent without the P Uncle Jam's army here-so you wanna dance? This is booty do your duty time We're soldiers on booty patrol And I'm your thrill sergeant And he's your thrill sergeant Gonna keep you on your toes, cause Uncle Jam wants you To do what you're supposed to do, and join his army! All right you mugs, one more time! I see you there marching in a foxhole But there's one thing I want to say to you Gotta reel it up and turn it round and round So you wanna dance, eh? Let me hear you say it loud and proud! Feeling good? Let me knock on wood Disturb the peace at the bridge of the river quiet Loud and proud!
