"Get on the Good Foot" is a funk song performed by James Brown. It was released in 1972 as a two-part single that charted #1 R&B and #18 Pop.[1][2] It also appeared on an album of the same name released that year. Partly due to the unwillingness of Brown's record labels to certify sales of his previous hits, "Get on the Good Foot" was his first gold record.[3] Billboard ranked it as the No. 99 song for 1972.[4]

Lyrics:
Can't pass the people, can't pass the, hit me
Ooh, get on down like
Uh, I wanna get on the good foot
Ho, good foot, I got to get on the good foot, ah
Going down to the crib, let all hang out
Where soulful people knows, what it's about, ah
Going down to the crib and let it all hang out, ah
Where soulful people knows, what it's about, ah
Where people do the sign and take your hands, ah
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 now but the rent, ah
A whole lotta bills and my money's spent
And that's on my bad foot, whoa, uh
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, uh
Come on, get it, ah, huh
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
Get it there, get it there
Ho, now bass, play on it now
Come on, get it, ah, get it
Get on the good foot
Ooh, I got to get on the good foot
Ooh, get on the good foot, ho
Take care of business, sister, I'm your fella
