hello boogie boy

when i was a boogie singer
playin in a rock and roll band
i never had no problems
running down the one night stands

and everything around me
got to stopped to fealing so love
and i decided quickly
yes i did
to disco down and check out the show

they were dancing
they were 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 the boogie and play that funky music till you die
till you die
till you die

i try to understand this
i thought that they were out of their minds
how could i've been so foolish, how could i
to not see they were

so still i keep on fighting
and losing every step away
i said i must go out there
yes i will
and check out if things still the same

they were dancing
they were 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 loud
play that funky music white boy
lay down the boogie and play that funky music till you die
till you die
till you die
till you die
till you die

play that funky music
play that funky music
play that funky music
play it play it play it play
play that funky music white boy
play that funky music
i want to play it to be nice
play that funky music white boy
play that funky music
i play it to you play it to you
play that funky music white boy
play that funky music
you got it you got it
play that funky music white boy
play that funky music
play that funky music white boy
play down the boogie and play that funky music til you die
die
till you die
