Play That Funky Music
Hey do it now yeah hey
Yeah, once I was a boogie singer playin' in a rock&roll band
I never had no problems, yeah burnin' down the one night stands
And everything around me, yeah got to start to feelin' so low
And I decided quickly (yes, I did) to disco down and check out the show
Yeah, they were dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down that boogie and play that funky music till you die
'Til you die
At first it wasn't easy changin' rock n' roll and minds
And things were getting shaky I thought I'd have to leave it behind
Oh, but now its so much better (It's so much better)
I'm funkin' out in ev-er-y way
But-I'll never lose that feelin' (No I won't)
Of how I learned my lesson that day
When they were dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down that boogie and play that funky music till you die
'Til you die, oh, till you die
They shouted (Play that funky music)
Play that funky music
(Play that funky music) Hmm got to keep on playing funky music
(Play that funky music) Play that funky music
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music till you die
Till you die, Lord till you die
They shouted (Play that funky music)
Play that funky music
(Play that funky music) Hmm got to keep on playing funky music
(Play that funky music) Play that funky music
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music till you die
Till you die, Lord till you die
