Limited Edition Release: James Brown, the "Godfather of Soul," was a prolific singer, songwriter and bandleader, as well as one of the most iconic figures in funk and soul music. James Brown worked his way to the top of the funk and R&B music earning the moniker "The Godfather of Soul." His unique vocal and musical style influenced many artists. Brown was also known for his social activism, both in his songwriting ("America is My Home," "Black and Proud") and advocating the benefits of education to schoolchildren. In addition to writing and recording music, Brown toured relentlessly. He performed five or six nights a week throughout the 1950s and '60s, a schedule that earned him the title "The Hardest-Working Man in Show Business." Brown was a flashy showman, incredible dancer, and soulful singer, and his concerts were hypnotizing displays of exuberance and passion that left audiences in raptures. His saxophonist, Pee Wee Ellis, once said, "When you heard James Brown was coming to town, you stopped what you were doing and started saving your money.”

lyrics
When you touch me
When you touch me
Good God
When you touch me
Lookie here
I can't stand it
Can't stand it
I can't stand your love
I can't stand your love
You don't love nobody else
Get back; I can't stand myself
Can't stand your love
Good God
Early in the morning
Can't get it right
Had a little time
With my baby last night
Early in the morning
Gotta do the walk
My baby, just let me talk
When you touch me, good God
When you touch me, all right
Come on, baby, hold my hand
Just want you to know
I'm a soul man
Can't stand it
Can't stand it
Can't stand it; lookie here
Can't stand it, baby
Can't stand it
Can't stand your love
Can't stand it
I can't stand your love
Lookie here, baby
What you want me to do?
Baby, what you want me to do?
You made me, made me love you
You give me fever; my body's wet
You give me fever, break out
In a cold sweat
Baby, good God
Baby, lookie here
Sometimes I want you
Sometime I call
Sometimes I ring so hard
Come on, good God
Baby, lookie here
Can't stand your love
Can't stand your love
Can't try your love
Can't stand your love
I can't stand it
I can't stand it, good God
Can't stand it, all right
I can't stand it, all right
Bass, lookie here
Bass, Tim
Help me out, Tim
Show me how you work a little bit, Tim
Good God, Good God
All right... can't stand it
Wait a minute, Tim
Let me get this whole thing together over here
Can't stand it...
