Oh

[Chorus]
Mama come here quick
And bring that licking stick
Mama come here quick
And bring that licking stick
Mama come here quick
And bring me that licking stick, horns
Mama come here quick
And bring me that licking stick
Mama come here quick
And bring me that licking stick

[Verse 1]
People standing
Standing in a trance
Sister out in the backyard
Doing her outside dance
Come telling me the other day
She didn't want to be a drag
I don't know what she's doing
I think she's got a brand new bag

[Chorus]
Mama come here quick
And bring me that licking stick
Mama come here quick
And bring that licking stick, now look here
[Verse 2]
Junior don't kill me with the lazy strokes
When he take his feet right off the ground
Doing the Mashed Potatoes and then he begin to slide
Call himself doing the James Brown
Sister says the dance you're doing is the latest thing
People now begin to talk
She jumped back in, that soulful stride
Baby, now she's doing the Camel Walk

[Chorus]
Mama come here quick
And bring me that licking stick - whoop her
Mama come here quick - get it
And bring that licking stick
Mama come here quick
And give me that licking stick
Sister, get out there with your bad self
Ha, one more time
Mama, come here quick
And bring that licking stick

Maceo, all right, bring your licking stick

[Tenor sax solo: Maceo Parker]
Licking stick, licking stick
Licking stick, almighty, licking stick
HO! Licking stick, ha, licking stick
Licking stick

Bobby, I like the way this sound (Yeah!)
Wanna try it one more time? (One more time!)
One more time? (One more time!)
Licking stick, ha, licking stick
Wait a minute, Maceo
People, people, looka here

[Verse 3]
I don't profess to be no teacher
These are my latest outlooks
She's got to get herself
Back in the mathematic books, huh

Do you hear me now? All right
I wanna tell you one more time
I wanna tell you one more time
I wanna tell you one more time

[Verse 2]
Junior don't kill me with his, with his lazy strokes
When he take his feet off the ground, ha
Doing the Mashed Potatoes, out there in the flow
Sometimes he think he's doing the James Brown
Sister says the dance you're doing is the latest thing
People now begin to talk
Ha, she jumped back in that soulful stride
Jumped back, do the Camel Walk
Come on, ha, come on, come on, come on, come on, OW!

[Chorus]
Mama come here quick
And bring me that licking stick - whoop her
Mama come here quick
And bring that licking stick
Mama, mama, mama, OH!
Mama come here quick
And bring that licking stick
Mama come here quick, hey
And bring that licking stick

Licking stick, licking stick
Licking stick, OH!
Licking stick, licking stick
Licking stick
