Play The Funky Music

Hey! Do It Now! (Hey-ey-ey)

Once I was a boogie singer

Playing in a rock 'n' roll band

I never had no problems, yeah

Running down them one night stands

Now everything around me, yeah

Got to start to feeling so low

And I decided quickly, yes I did

To disco down and check out the show

And they were dancing and singing

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 the boogie and play that funky music 'til you die, 'til you die, yeah-ah

I tried to understand this

I thought that they were out of their minds

How could I be so foolish, how could I?

To not see I was the one behind

So still I kept on fighting, whoa

Losing never step out of way

I said I must go back there, got to go back

and check to see if things still the same

And they were dancing and singing

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 the boogie and play that funky music 'til you die, 'til you die,

whoa 'til you die

c'mon play some of my funky music

(Guitar Solo)

(Hey baby)

At first it wasn't easy

Changing rock 'n' roll in mind

Now things were getting shaky

I thought I'd have to leave it behind

But now it's so much better, it's so much better

I'm funking out in every way

But I'll never lose that feeling, yeah I won't

Of how I learned my lesson that day

And they were dancing and singing

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 the boogie and play that funky music 'til you die, 'til you die, oh 'til you die

(they shouted)

Play that funky music (play that funky music)

Play that funky music (you got to keep on playing funky music)

Play that funky music (play that funky music)

Play that funky music (gonna take a higher note)

(Start to fade)

Play that funky music, white boy

Play that funky music right

Play that funky music, white boy

Play that funky music right

Play that funky music, white boy

Play that funky music right

Play that funky music
