A-hey
Do it now
Huh
Yeah hey
Hey
Once I was a funky singer
Playin' in a rock and roll band
I never had no problems
Yeah
Burnin' down the
one night stands
And everything around me
Yeah
Got to stop to feelin' so low
And I decided quickly
Yes I did
To disco down and
check out the show
Yeah they was 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 the boogie and
play that funky music
'til you die
Ha ha
'Til you die
Oh ya ya
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 fightin'
Well losin' every
step of the way
I said I must go back there
I got to go back
And check to see if
things still the same
Yeah they was 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 the boogie and
play that funky music
'til you die
Ha ha
'Til you die
Oh 'til you die
C'mon
Play some electified
funky music
Oo
Hey wait a minute
Now first it wasn't easy
Changin' rock and roll
and minds
And things were gettin' shaky
I thought I'd have to
leave it behind
Now it's so much better
Yeah so much better
I'm funkin' out in every 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 the boogie and
play that funky music
'til you die
Ha ha
'Til you die
Oh 'til you die yeah
Play that funky music
You gotta keep on
playin' funky music
Play that funky music
Wanna take you higher y'all
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Yeah
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music
Right yeah
