Well, I was a boogie singer playin' in a rock and roll band<br />
I never had no problems burnin' down one night stands<br />
And everythin' around me got to stop to feelin' so low<br />
And I decided quickly, yes I did to disco down and check out the show<br />
<br />
They were dancin', they were singin'<br />
And movin' to the groovin'<br />
And just when it hit me<br />
Somebody turned around and shouted<br />
<br />
Play that funky music, white boy<br />
Play that funky music right<br />
Play that funky music, white boy<br />
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music till you die<br />
Till you die, till you die<br />
<br />
I tried to understand this<br />
I thought that they were out of their minds<br />
How could I be so foolish?<br />
How could I to not see they were the one behind?<br />
<br />
So still I kept on fightin'<br />
Losing every step of the way<br />
I said I must go back there, yes I will<br />
And check to see if things still the same<br />
<br />
They were dancin' and singin'<br />
And movin' to the groovin'<br />
And just when it hit me<br />
Somebody turned around and shouted<br />
<br />
Play that funky music, white boy<br />
Play that funky music right<br />
Play that funky music, white boy<br />
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music till you die<br />
Till you die, till you die<br />
Till you die, till you die<br />
<br />
Play that funky music<br />
Play that funky music<br />
Play that funky music<br />
Play that funky music<br />
<br />
Play that funky music, white boy<br />
Play that funky music right<br />
Play that funky music, white boy<br />
Play that funky music right<br />
<br />
Play that funky music, white boy<br />
Play that funky music right<br />
Play that funky music, white boy<br />
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music till you die<br />
Till you die<br /><br />
