Say It Loud -- I'm Black And I'm Proud, Pt. 1 Lyrics - Legenden Des Soul - James Brown

Uh! Your bad self! 

Say it loud! I'm black and I'm proud 

Say it louder! I'm black and I'm proud 

Look a-here! 

Some people say we got a lot of malice, some say it's a lotta nerve 

But I say we won't quit movin' until we get what we deserve 

We've been buked and we've been scourned 

We've been treated bad, talked about as sure as you're born 

But just as sure as it take two eyes to make a pair, huh! 

Brother we can't quit until we get our share 

Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud 

Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud 

One more time, say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud, huh!

I've worked on jobs with my feet and my hands 

But all the work I did was for the other man 

And now we demands a chance to do things for ourselves 

We tired of beatin' our head against the wall 

An' workin' for someone else 

Say it loud! I'm black and I'm proud 

Say it loud! I'm black and I'm proud 

Say it loud! I'm black and I'm proud 

Say it loud! I'm black and I'm proud, oh! 

Ooh-wee, you're killin' me 

Alright, uh, you're out of sight! 

Alright, so tough you're tough enough! 

Ooh-wee uh! you're killin' me! oow! 

Say it loud! I'm black and I'm proud 

Say it louder! I'm black and I'm proud

Now we demand a chance to do things for ourselves 

We tired of beatin' our heads against the wall 

And workin' for someone else look a-here 

There's one thing more I got to say right here 

Now, now we're people, we're like the birds and the bees 

We rather die on our feet than keep livin' on our knees 

Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud huh! 

Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud huh! 

Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud Lord-a, Lord-a, Lord-a 

Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud, ooh! 

Uh! alright now, good God 

You know we can do the boogaloo
