Papa’s Got A Brand New Bag

[Verse 1]
Come here, sister
Papa's in the thing
Ain't too hip
On that new breed thing
It ain't no drag
Papa's got a brand new bag

[Bridge]
He's doing The Jerk
He's doing The Fly
Don't play him cheap
You know he's not shy
He's doing the fly
The Mash Potato, The Alligator
Jump back, Jack
See you later, alligator

[Verse 1 repeated]
Come here, sister
