Hey, do it now, yeah hey
Hey, once I was a boogie 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 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 'til you die
(Hey,hey)
'Til you die, yeah, yeah hey
I tried to understand this, yeah, huh
I thought that they were out of their minds
How could I be so foolish, how could?
Tonight's the hours, the one behind
So still I kept on fightin'
Wow, loosin' every step of the way
(Yeah, what'd you do?)
I said, I must go back there
(Got to go back)
And check to see if things still the same
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 'til you die
'Til you die, hey
Wow, 'til you die
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
Oh, but now it's so much better
(It's 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 that 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)
Got to keep on, play that funky music
(Play that funky music)
Play that funky music
(Play that funky music)
Wanna take ya high-a now
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
Play that funky music
Play that funky music
