How you doin'?
There once I was a boogie singer
Layin' in a rock and roll band
I never had no problems, yeah
Burnin' down the one night stands
It's a little rough thing around me, yeah
Got to stop to feelin' so low
And I decided quickly
Yes I did
To just go down and check out the show
In the middle [Bm] of dancin' and singin'
And groovin' to the movin'
And just when it hit me
Somebody just run [Dbm] around and [Dm] shouted
Play that funk and music white boy
[Cm] [Dm] Play that funk and [G] music right
[Dm] Play that funk and [Bb] music white boy
[Fm] [Em] Lay down the [Bm] boogie
Play that funk and music [E] right
Do you [D] die?
Yeah, [E] yeah
[Em] I [A] tried to [E] understand this
I thought that they were out of their minds
Why would I be so foolish
To not see I was the one behind
So still I kept on fightin'
Losin' every step of the way
I said I must go back there
Got to move it
And check to see if things still the same
In the middle of dancin' [Bm] and singin'
And groovin' to the movin'
And just when it hit me
Somebody just run [Gb] around [Dm] and shouted
Play that funk and music white boy

[A] [Em] But now [E] it's so much better
So much better
I'm [D] funkin' out in there by [Em] my [Dbm] way
[Em] But I [D] better not lose that [E] feelin'
No, I won't
Of how I learned my lesson
In the middle of dancin' and singin'
