Sock It to 'Em J.B. Lyrics

Are you ready for this? I told you he was coming
Who?
JB, and he's ready to sock it to ya one time

Sock it to 'em, sock it to 'em
Sock it to 'em, sock it to 'em
Sock it to 'em, sock it to 'em
Sock it to 'em, sock it to 'em

Dr. No
From Russia with Love
Goldfinger
Thuderball
Casino Royale

Soul jerk
Shake your hips, shake your body line to the ground JB style
Soulful
Oh mamma you doin' it good, you doin' it right, you doin' it JB style
Soulful

Sock it to 'em, sock it to 'em
Sock it to 'em, sock it to 'em
Sock it to 'em, sock it to 'em
Sock it to 'em, sock it to 'em

Diamonds are forever
Moonraker
Man with the golden gun
Live and let die
The spy who loved me
You only live twice

JB's got you doin' the bosanova, JB's got you doin' the scratch
So let me see you rock and let me see you shake it to JB's rock
Soulful

Sock it to 'em, sock it to 'em
Sock it to 'em, sock it to 'em
Sock it to 'em, sock it to 'em
Sock it to 'em, sock it to 'em

KGB, who?
CIA, who?
FBI, who?
MI5, who?
Interpol, who?
Scotland Yard, who?
CIA, who?

Cover art for Sock It to 'Em J.B. lyrics by Specials, The

This is the all-time most shagadelic mod '60s song ever recorded. But we need to make a couple of corrections to BeautifulDisaster's lyrics:

*In the fourth verse, Neville shouts out, "Soul-Fool," not "Soulful."

*In the third to the last verse, JB's got you doin' the SHRUG, which was a popular dance in the mid-60s (not the "scratch")

Anyway - kudos for posting this one. It' one of the most underappreciated songs in The Specials' repertoire.
