Lyrics for There Was A Time - Live At The Apollo Theater, 1967

There was a day There was a time When I used to date There was a time when I used to praise But dig me now Baby, don't worry about later Dig the dance I used to do They call her Mashed Potatoes There was a day Now dig this There was a dance They call a Jerk Everybody relax and watch me work In my hometown where I used to stay The name of the place is Augusta, GA Down there we have a good time We don't talk We all get together in time, for rhythm then we do The camel walk Lookey here, dig this Now there was a dance that I used to do The name of the dance They call it Boogaloo I may not do the dance as well as you#VERSE But baby, you can bet your bottom dollar You never hear me holler I'll do the best that I can do Lookey here, feeling good There was a time, sometimes I dance, lookey here Sometimes I dance, sometimes I clown But you can bet you haven't seen nothing yet Until you see me do the James Brown
