Play That Funky Music
Wild Cherry Song Lyrics




Once I was a boogie singer
Playin' in a Rock 'n Roll band
I never had no problems
Runnin' down the one night stands
And everything around me
Got to start to feelin' so low
And I decided quickly
To disco down and check out the show
Yea they were dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted

Chorus
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down and the boogie and play that funky music 'til you die

I tried to understand this
I thought that they were out of their minds
How could I be so foolish
To not see I was the one behind
So still I kept on fightin'
Well, losin' every step of the way
I said I must go back there
And check to see if things still the same
Yea they were dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted

(Chorus)
(Lead)

Now first it wasn't easy
Changin' rock 'n roll at Myze
And things were gettin' 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 feeling
Of how I learned my lesson that day
When they were singin' and dancin' and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted

(Chorus)
