Once I was a boogie singer
Playin` in a Rock & Roll Band
I never had no problems
Burnin` down the one night stands

And they were dancing and singing
And movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me
Somebody turned around and shouted

Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music, play
Play that funky music, white boy
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music 'til you die, 'til
you die, yeah-ah

Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music, play
Play that funky music, white boy
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music 'til you die, 'til
you die, yeah-ah
