Play That Funny Music

Now once I was a kooky singer -- playin' in a rock and roll band

I never had no problems

Singing songs that weren't nice then

But whenever Jesus found me

God said not to sing them no more

So I decided biblically

To switch them round and check how it'd go

And they were dancin' and diggin' the music we was usin'

And just when it hit them the words were turned around

They shouted

Play that funny music right, boy

Play that funny music right

Play that funny music right, boy

They got confused

Cause I played them Sunday music in disguise

In disguise? In disguise!

LEAD

Now first it wasn't easy

Changin' rock and rollin' lines

I sing but when He saved me

I thought I'd have to leave it behind

But now it's so much better

I'm pointing out the heavenly way

I get accused of stealin'

But now I turn to Wesley and say

Man they were dancin' and diggin' the music we was usin'

And just when it hit them the words were turned around

They shouted

Play that funny music right, boy

Play that funny music right

Play that funny music right, boy

They're not amused

And they say that what we're doin' isn't right

But is it right? Is it right?
