James Brown - Play That Funky Music White Boy lyrics

[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
