Wild Cherry - Play that funky music

Hey once I ^E9was a boogie singer playin' in a rock and roll band I never had no problems burning down them one night stands And e^E9verything around me got to stop to feelin' so low And I decided quickly yes I did to disco down and check out the show

Yeah they was da^E9ncin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin' And j^E9ust when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted

^G9Play that funky music white boy play that funky music right Play that funky music w^Bb7hite boy ^EmLay down a b^Doogie and p^Bmlay that fu^A7nky m^Dusic till you d^E9ie

I tr^E9ied to understand this I thought that they were out of their minds How could I be so foolish how could I to not see I was the one behind So s^E9till I kept on fighting well losing every step of the way I said I must go back there I got to go back and check to see if things still the same

Yeah they was da^E9ncin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin' And j^E9ust when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
