(A tribute to Chuck Brown 1936-2012)
Chuck,soul-Searchin'
Busstin' loose,Brown is
the undisputed God-father
Of the Go-Go sound.
As the brightest star on
The Go-Go walk of fame
You gave the home grown
Groove a national name.
The way you wind me up
I know it's your pleasure
And as DC's native-son
You're a national treasure.
You put the trouble in
The funk for all to see,as
The God-father of Go-Go
In the first degree.
As the rare essence of
What Go-Goes around
You are the host in the
House of the DC.sound.
Latin rhythms,Jazz,Soul
And a non-stop beat
Are the roots of go-go with a
Call and response, from the street.
If it ain't got the Go-Go,groove
It don't mean a thing
If it ain't funky enough
To have the Go-Go swing.
As an indigenous-icon
Of classic Go-Go soul
You have a feel for the
Music that never grows old.
Thru experience-unlimited
As a master-music man,you
Are the great-Godfather of
Go-Go all over the land.
You put the soulful-funk
In it for all to see as the
God-Father of Go-Go
In the first-degree.
Ps.Sho' ya right!
