James Brown - Play That Funky Music lyrics

Play that funky music

Yea hey
Hey

Once there was a boogie singer
Playing in a rock & roll band
I never had no problems, yea
burnin´out the one night stands
And everything around me
Got to start to feeling so low
And I decied quickly, yes is did
To disco down & check out this show

Yea there was dancing
And singing
And moving to the grooving
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 & play that funky music til you die
Til you die?
(Yea)
Oh til you die

I tried to understand this
I thought that they where 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
Loosing every step of the way
(And what you do?)
I said I must go back there, got to go back
And check to see if things still the same

Yea there were dancing
And singing
And moving to the grooving
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 & wear that funky music til you die
Til you die?
(Yea)
Oh til you die

Hey, wait a minute
Now 1st it wasn´t easy
Changing rock & roll & minds
And things where getting shaky
I thought I had to leave it behind
Now its so much better, it is so much better
I am funkying out in every way
But I will never lose that feeling, no I would not
On how I learned my lesson that day

Yea there were dancing
And singing
And moving to the grooving
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 & play that funky music til you die
Til you die?
(Yea)
Oh til you die

Thay shouted
Play that funky music
Play that funky music
Play that funky music
Play that funky music

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
