Mashed Potatoes U.S.A. Lyrics By James Brown And The Famous Flames

    here i am and i’m back again
    i’m gonna mashed potatoes
    i’m gonna start by going to new york city with your number one
    i’m going to boston
    ow i’m going to buffalo
    going straight down the road and gonna stop in cleveland ohio
    gonna go to your next door neighbor
    i’m gonna mashed potatoes in detroit too
    i’m gonna swing right on down the freeway
    doing the mashed potatoes gonna stop in chicago
    and st louis missouri
    going way on the other side and stop in memphis tennessee
    while i’m in the neighborhood i’m gonna stop in nashville too
    my old good old place where everybody’s having a mighty good time
    in charlotte north carolina
    i believe i’ll mashed potatoes where the cowboys stay
    of course you know i’m talking about dallas texas
    and i want you to know i got houston texas on my mind ow
    now any of any of these places i called and i missed your town
    i just want you to know i’m coming through
    ’cause i’m mashed potato bound
    miami florida jacksonville too
    columbia south carolina too ow
    and norfolk virginia too
    san francisco
    i’d mashed potatoes at the world’s fair in seattle washington
    los angeles california
    going back over on the east coast
    i’m going to richmond virginia
    i’m gonna fool ya
    now i’m going to my old hometown
    i’m going to augusta georgia
    spelled augusta
