Play That Funky Music

Play That Funky Music - Ken Tamplin

Well I was a boogie singer playin' in a rock and roll band

I never had no problems burnin' down one night stands

And everythin' around me got to stop to feelin' so low

And I decided quickly yes I did to disco

Down and check out the show

They were dancin' they were 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 till you die

Till you die till you die

Now first it wasn't easy

Changin' Rock & Roll and minds

And things were getting shaky

I thought I'd have to leave it behind

But now it's so much better

I'm funking out in every way

But I'll never lose that feelin'

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 till you die

Oh till you die

They shouted play that funky music

Play that funky music

Play that funky music

Gotta keep on playin' funky music

Play that funky music

Play that funky music
