[intro: wild cherry, smash mouth]
somebody turned around and shouted
“play that funky music, white boy”
[verse 1: wild cherry]
yeah, they were dancing and 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 ’til you die,” heh heh
’til you die, yeah (what?)
hear, hear, heh
(play that funky music)
(play that funky music)
(play that funky music)
[verse 2: chumbawamba, wild cherry]
i get knocked down, but i get up again (i tried to understand this)
you’re never gonna keep me down
i get knocked down, but i get up again (i thought that they were out of their minds)
you’re never gonna keep me down
i get knocked down, but i get up again (how could i be so foolish, how could i)
you’re never gonna keep me down
i get knocked down, but i get up again (to not see i was the one behind?)
you’re never gonna keep me down
so still i kept on [?]
well, losing every step of the way [?]
he drinks a whiskey drink, he drinks a vodka drink
he drinks a lager drink, he drinks a cider drink
he sings the songs that remind him of the good times
he sings the songs that remind him of the better times
[verse 3: carl douglas, (smash mouth), chumbawamba, bee gees, wild cheery]
there were funky china men from funky chinatown (g*g*g*go for the moon, go for the moon)
they were chopping them up, they were chopping them down (g*g*g*go for the moon, go for the moon)
i get knocked down
ah, ah, ah, ah (g*g*g*go for the moon, go for the moon)
stayin’ alive, stayin’ alive (ah)
ah, ah, ah, ah (g*g*g*go for the moon, go for the moon)
stayin’ alive, stayin’ alive
play that funky music, white boy
lay down the boogie and play that funky music ’til you stayin’ alive
[verse 4: bee gees, dire straits, chumpawamba, wild cherry]
oh, when you walk
do the walk of life (life)
do the walk of life
well, you can tell by the way i use my walk
i’m a woman’s man, no time to talk
and now it’s alright, it’s okay
and you may look the other way
but we can try to understand (he drinks a whiskey drink, he drinks a vodka drink)
the new york times’ effect on man (he drinks a lager drink, he drinks a cider drink)
he sings the songs that remind him of the good times
he sings the songs that remind him of the better times
hey, wait a minute, now first it wasn’t easy (ah, ah, ah, ah, stayin’ alive, stayin’ alive (ah))
changing rock and roll and minds (ah, ah, ah, ah)
here come johnny singing oldies, goldies (he sings the songs that remind him of the good times)
here come johnny singing “i got a woman” (he sings the songs that remind him of the better times)
down in the tunnels, tryna make it pay
[verse 5: wild cherry, chumpawamba]
i get knocked down, but i get up again (but now it’s so much better, it’s so much better)
you’re never gonna keep me down
i get knocked down, but i get up again (i’m funking out in every way)
you’re never gonna keep me down
but i’ll never lose that feeling, no, i won’t
of how i learned my lesson that day
yeah, they were dancing and singing
and moving to the grooving
and just when it hit me
somebody turned around and shouted
“play that funky music, white boy”
