[Verse 1]
Once i was a boogie singer
Playing in a rock & roll band
I never had no problems
Burning down the night stands
And everything around me
Got to stop to feeling so low
And i decided quickly
Yes i did
To disco down and check out the show
[Chorus]
Yeah they 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 that boogie and play that funky music till you die
Till you die
Oh till you die
[Verse 2]
I tried to understand this
I thought that they were outta there minds
How could i be so foolish
To not see i was the one behind
So still i kept on fighting
Loosing every step by the way
I said, i must go back there
In jackessee still the things are the same
[Chorus]
When they 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 that boogie and play that funky music till you die
Till you die
Oh till you die
[Verse 3]
At first it wasn't easy
Changed in rock'n'roll at mind
The things won't get 'n shaking
I thought i have to leave it behind
But now it's so much better
I'm funking out and out by the way
Well, i'll never loose that feeling
How i learned by lesson yeahea
[Chorus]
When they 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 that boogie and play that funky music till you die
Till you die
Oh till you die
[Outro]
That's all
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
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
