Papa's got a brand new bag lyrics
by Otis Redding



Come in, sister
Papa's in the den
Ain't too hip
'Bout that new breed dance

It ain't no drag
Papa's got a brand new bag

He's doing the jerk
He's doing the fly
Don't play him cheap
You know he's not shy

The mash potatoes
The alligator
Jump back, Jack
See you later, alligator

Come in, sister
Papa's in the den
Ain't too hip
'Bout that new breed dance

It ain't no drag
Papa's got a brand new bag

Come on now, hey, hey
Come on, he's out of sight
He's uptight, come on and groove me
Oh, you're out of sight, walk with me

Got it, yeah
Soul man, just soul
Groove me, be uptight
Out of sight

Mister Minute, that's my name
Got it, yeah

He's doing the twist
He's doing the fly
Don't play him cheap
You know he's not shy

The mash potato, the alligator
Jump back, Jack
I see you later, alligator

Come in, sister
Papa's in the den
Ain't too hip
'Bout that new breed dance

It ain't no drag
M-man's got a brand new bag

Come on, heyey
Comin', comin'
Got it
