Rick James

Rick James (born James Ambrose Johnson, Jr.; February 1, 1948 – August 6, 2004) was an American singer, songwriter, musician and record producer, best known for being the major popularizer of funk music in the late 1970s and early 1980s thanks to million-selling hits such as "You and I" (1978), "Give It to Me Baby" (1981) and "Super Freak" (1981), the latter song crossing him over to pop audiences and selling over three million copies, later contributing to the success of rapper MC Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" (1990), which James sued to be credited for. James won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Song with Hammer for the song, his only Grammy win. more »

You and I
We fit together like a glove on hand, that's right
Don't you know that I would gladly take you anywhere you wanted to go?
You and me 
We are as close as three-part harmony, wouldn't you agree?
And if by chance our romance ended it would surely be the end of me

Some people might say I'm infatuated (I don't care)
I don't care 'cause they really don't know 
They'll never see or hear the things I do with you
So far as I'm concerned they all can go to 

Well, alright, you squares, it's time you smoked
Fire up this funk and let's have a toke
It'll make you dance and some of everything
Everybody get high, sing

Bustin' out
Bustin' out

We're bustin' out of this L-Seven square
Freaks like you and I could never funk on there
We're bustin' out, everybody come along
We gon' dance on the funk and make love on the song

Sexy, sexy, sexy

Who do you
Girl, who do you belong to?
My point of view is
Girl, I think you're hot
If we talked
What words could I describe?
There's no dictionary book
To explain how you look

Girl, I think you're so
Sexy, sexy, sexy
Cold blooded
What more can I say?
Sexy, sexy, sexy
Cold blooded (freak)

Mary, I love you
Do it, baby

Doo doo doo doo 
Mary Jane
Mary Jane

I'm in love with Mary Jane
She's my main thing
She makes me feel alright
She makes my heart sing
And when I'm feeling low
She comes as no surprise
Turns me on with her love
Takes me to paradise

Do you love me, Mary Jane?
Yeah, whoa-oh-oh
Do ya? Do ya? Do ya? Do ya? Do ya? Do ya?
Now do you think you love me, Mary Jane
Don't you play no games (woo)

Doo doo doo doo 
Mary Jane

When I came home last night
You wouldn't make love to me
You went fast to sleep
You wouldn't even talk to me
You said I'm so crazy
Coming home intoxicated
I said, "Just wanna love you"
I just wanna love you, baby
Guess that's why I'm so elated

C'mon girl, give it to me, baby (give it to me, baby)
Give it to me, baby (give it to me, baby)
I betcha I'll make you hot 'til you've had enough

Give it to me
Give me that stuff that funk, that sweet that funky stuff (say what)
Give it to me
Give me that stuff that funk that sweet that funky stuff (say what)
Give it to me, give it to me
Give it to me, give it to me
Give me that stuff
That sweet, funky stuff
Yoh ho, ow ow ow

Girl, you're cute, you're sweet
You're such a sexy treat
You are the girl that turns me on
And when you're hot, you're hot
I love the stuff you've got
You are the kinky girl I write about in every song

Do do da do do da do do dah
Do do bop bop, baby
Do do dah do
Don't be so hard to get
Do do dah do do da do do dah
Do do bop bop, baby
Do do dah do
'Cause I will get you yet, hey

She's a very kinky girl
The kind you don't take home to mother
She will never let your spirits down
Once you get her off the street, oh girl

She likes the boys in the band
She says that I'm her all-time favorite
When I make my move to her room it's the right time
She's never hard to please, oh no

That girl is pretty wild now (the girl's a super freak)
The kind of girl you read about (in new-wave magazines)
That girl is pretty kinky (the girl's a super freak)
I'd really love to taste her (every time we meet)

She's all right, she's all right
That girl's all right with me, yeah
Hey, hey, hey, hey

She's a super freak, super freak

Blow Danny!

Oh girl
Oh girl
