Lyrics

[00:17.91] Once I was a boogie singer
[00:22.66] Playin' in a Rock 'n Roll band
[00:27.02] I never had no problems
[00:31.51] Runnin' down the one night stands
[00:35.26] And everything around me
[00:40.12] Got to start to feelin' so low
[00:44.69] And I decided quickly
[00:48.99] To disco down and check out the show
[00:52.98] Yea they were dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
[00:57.66] And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
[01:02.46] Play that funky music white boy
[01:06.83] Play that funky music right
[01:11.20] Play that funky music white boy
[01:15.50] Lay down and the boogie and play that funky music 'til you die
[01:20.30]
[01:27.91] Now first it wasn't easy
[01:32.40] Changin' rock 'n roll at Myze
[01:37.65] And things were gettin' shaky
[01:41.14] I thought I'd have to leave it behind
[01:45.94] But now it's so much better
[01:49.25] I'm funking out in every way
[01:54.93] But I'll never lose that feeling
[01:57.92]
[01:59.40] Of how I learned my lesson that day
[02:03.11] When they were singin' and dancin' and movin' to the groovin'
[02:07.81] And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
[02:12.58] Play that funky music white boy
[02:17.01] Play that funky music right
[02:20.82] Play that funky music white boy
[02:25.50] Lay down and the boogie and play that funky music 'til you die
[02:31.49]
[02:56.07] Now first it wasn't easy
[03:00.66] Changin' rock 'n roll at Myze
[03:05.23] And things were gettin' shaky
[03:08.96] I thought I'd have to leave it behind
[03:13.40] But now it's so much better
[03:16.40]
[03:17.93] I'm funking out in every way
[03:22.30] But I'll never lose that feeling
[03:25.23]
[03:27.12] Of how I learned my lesson that day
[03:30.62] When they were singin' and dancin' and movin' to the groovin'
[03:35.44] And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
[03:40.62] Play that funky music white boy
[03:44.49] Play that funky music right
[03:48.73] Play that funky music white boy
[03:53.22] Lay down and the boogie and play that funky music 'til you die
[03:58.59]
