It Had To Be You - James Brown, Dee Felice Trio

Four corners

Funky, funky, funky four corners

It had to be you, it had to be you

I wandered around and finally found

Somebody who could make me feel blue, could make me be true

And even be glad, just to be sad thinking of you

Some others I’ve seen might never be mean

Might never, ever be cross or try to be boss

But they, they wouldn’t do for nobody else gave me a thrill

With all your faults, baby, I love you still

It had to be you, it had to be you, it had to be you

Shoo-ba-doo-ba-doo, it had to be you, it had to be you

Wandered around and finally found

Somebody who could make me feel blue, hey, could make me be true

Even be glad, just to be sad thinking of you

Shoo-ba-doo-ba

Some others I’ve seen, might never be mean, don’t be so mean

Might never be cross or try to be boss

But they, they wouldn’t do

But nobody else gave me that look or thrill, ow

With all your faults, woman, I love you still

It had to be, it had to be, it had to be you, hey, hey

It had to be you, it had to be you, hey

I said, it had to be, had to be, it had to be you

You doggone, woman, you, heh heh heh, ow
