star generation
james brown
way in the middle of the night
did you ever hear a story
he was raised in the ghetto
but he couldn't dance a lick
all those flashing lights
and the music set the cold chill
something better than a cotton-picking man
(all he ever really wanted
he stood there and listened
and the beat began to pound
so he learned all the dances
from the kids on the block
to be the star of the disco
all he ever really wanted
woo-woo-woo-woo-woo-woo-woo-whoah!
all he ever really wanted
now he's a star of the discotheque
sho-nuff goes by the name
now he's a star of the disco
this star generation of a discotheque
is known all over the world
he's known all over the world
wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow!
wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow!
get it fella! get it lady!
get it lady! get it lady!
