Wild Cherry - Текст песни Play That Funky Music

Hey
?Do it now
?Yeah hey

Yeah, once I was a boogie singer
?Playin' in a rock n' roll band
I never had no problems, yeah
?Burnin' down the one night stands
And everything around me, yeah
?Got to start to feelin' so low
And I decided quicklyyes, I did
To disco down and check out the show

Yeah, they were dancin' and singin' 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 right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down that boogie and play that funky music till you die
(Hey,hey) till you die
?Yeah, yeah

Well, I tried to understand this
?Yeah, huh, I thought that they were
Out of their minds
How could I be so foolish,How could I
?Tonight's the hours, the one behind
So still I kept on fightin
'?Wow, loosin' every step of the way
(Yeah, what'd you Do?)
I said, I must go back thereGot to go back
?And check to see if things still the same

Yeah, they were dancin' and singin' 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 right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down that boogie and play that funky music till you dieWild Cherry - Play That Funky Music - http://ru.motolyrics.com/wild-cherry/play-that-funky-music-lyrics.html
Till you die
?(Yeah) Wow, till you die

(Come on ?Play some electrified funky music)

Hey, wait a minute

Now first it wasn't easy
?Changin' rock n' roll and minds
And things were getting shaky
?I thought I'd have to leave it behind
Oh, but now its so much betterIt's so much better
I'm funkin out in ev-er-y
Way
But-I'll never lose that feelin'No I won't
?Of how I learned my lesson that day

When they were dancin' and singin' 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 right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down that boogie and play that funky music till you die
Till you die
?Oh, till you die

(They shouted, Play that funky music) Play that funky music
(Play that funky music) Got to keep on
?Play that funky music
(Play that funky music) Pl--AY that funky music
(Play that funky music) Wanna take ya higha now

Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right, yeah

О песне

"Play That Funky Music" (also known as "Play That Funky Music", White Boy") is a funk rock song written by Robert Parissi and recorded by the rock band Wild Cherry. The song hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 on September 18, 1976. It was also the basis of a top five U.S.A. hit for Vanilla Ice in 1990. The song was inspired by a black audience member who shouted, "Play some funky music, white boy" while they were playing at the 2001 Club. Lead singer Robert Parissi decided they should, and wrote down the phrase on a bar order pad. They later recorded it in Cleveland with a Disco sound. Although the band was concerned about the lyrics, Parissi insisted on keeping them. Originally, it was planned that the song should be released on the B-side of Wild Cherry's cover of the Commodores' "I Feel Sanctified;" however, when the owners of their record label heard the song, they suggested that the B-side become the A-side. The song sold over two million copies, but was Wild Cherry's only hit. Vanilla Ice later released a cover of "Play That Funky Music", as the B-side of his single "Ice Ice Baby", which catapulted him to stardom. Vanilla Ice did not credit Parissi for the piece, leading to a lawsuit that ended in a large settlement for Parissi. Vanilla Ice's version hit #4 in the US, and was his second and last hit song. A tribute version of the song was arranged and recorded by Gordon Goodwin and his Big Phat Band on their 2006 record The Phat Pack. A spoken word version of the song, deliberately done in an unflattering manner, was used in the early 1990s in a Pioneer Electronics commercial for their automobile audio products.
