Get On The Good Foot by James Brown
Get On The Good Foot
This based on a live version of this song.
Here's the main riff for the song. It's pretty simple, but remember to play it FUNKY,
in hit the string very percussively and lift your finger up slightly, muting the string
instant after you pick it.
e|--------------------------------------|
b|--------------------------------------|
g|--------------------------------------|
d|--------7-7--9-9--10-10--9h10p9-------|
a|--------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------|
Here's the other part that I've heard played live. It gets faster and louder as it
on, but it's just this one chord.
e|---5---|
b|---5---|
g|---5---|
d|---4---|
a|---5---|
E|---X---|
I play the A string with my thumb, which also mutes the E string for that rhythmic,
sound. Try to hit the G, B, and E strings a little harder than D and A for the right sound.
Qué pasa people, qué pasa, hit me!
Get on down
I wanna get on the good foot
Ho! Good foot
I got to get on the good foot
Going down to the crib
Let all hang out
Where soulful people knows what it's about
Going down to the crib
And let it all hang out
Where soulful people knows what it's about
Where people do the sign and take your hands
And dancin' to the music James Brown band
They're dancing on the good foot
I got to get on the good foot
Got to do it on the good foot
Do it with the good foot
Said the long-hair hippies and the afro blacks
They all get together across the tracks
And they party
Ho! On the good foot
You know they dance on the good foot
Dance on the good foot
Ain't nothing goin' on
But the rent
A whole lotta bills and my money's spent
And that's on my bad foot
You know my face gettin' short and I got the blues
I got a funky job and I paid my dues on the good foot
Ho! On the good foot
I got to get on the good foot
Hey! On the good foot
Get on the good foot
Come over!
Hit it there
You got to get it
Get it
Sharper now!
Come on, get it
On the good foot
On the good foot
Ho! On the good foot
Get on the good foot
On the good foot
On the good foot
Ho! Get on the good foot
On the good foot
Bass! Bass!
Get it down
Get it down
Ho!
Now bass
Play on it now
Come on
Get it
Get it
Get on the good foot
I got to get on the good foot
Get on the good foot
Ho!
Take care of business, sister, I'm your fella
Stay on the case, you got to be mellow
Oh stay on the good foot
I don't know what he says she says or whatever
The only way I can take care of me
I gotta keep me together
Stay on the good foot
Stay on the good foot
I can deal with life and organise me, on the good foot
I got to get on the good foot
Hey! On the good foot
Get on the good foot
Stay on the good foot
I got to get on the good foot
Dance on the good foot
Qué pasa people, qué pasa people, hombre
Hasta mañana mi cielo
Get it on the good foot
Hombre, on the good foot
On the good foot
Oh yes I know, on the good foot
Get on the good foot, hey
Going on for 9 to 7 and get on the good foot
On the good foot
I got to get on the good foot
Stay on the good foot
Get on the good foot
Stay on the good foot
Get on the good foot
Got to get on the good foot
Get on the good foot
Qué pasa people
Get on the good foot
