Lyrics

[Verse 1]
F-U-N-K
Funk, funk, ya'll, funk
Ow, help me, Nicky, now help me
[Verse 2]
I was born with it
I will die with it
Because it's in my blood
And I can't, I can't get enough
So I, so I
Danced to the music
And I sang a simple song
[Verse 3]
I was thankful and thoughtful
Sly stone came along
'Cause he took me higher
And he made me see
[Verse 4]
I had inner visions of a young man named Stevie
Stevie Wonder
Tina Turner
Al Green ya'll
Anne Peebles
They were born with it
And they're gonna, ah, they're gonna leave here with it
Because it's in their blood
And that is why I want to you to
Help me, Nicky, now help me
[Verse 5]
Barry White
Larry Graham does it right
Isaac Hayes, ya'll
The O' Jay's singin'
Some people got to have it
Some people really need it, now
Some people will do anything
For the love, for the love of that stuff called money, now
[Verse 6]
I'm gonna tell ya about a man
He had a lot of feeling in his hands
And his name was Jimi Hendrix, ya'll
Jimi Hendrix was his name
He could make that guitar walk
He could make that guitar talk, now
He could make that guitar sing
Jimi, yes, he could make it do anything, anything
He used to say foxy lady
He used to say ah, Betty, Betty
I'm gonna get you now, ow
[Verse 7]
Aretha Franklin, can't she sing it
I said Chaka Khan, don't she swing it
The Funkadelics, can't they do it
And when you hear skin tight, you wanna get into it
[Verse 8]
F-U-N-K
Funk, funk, ya'll
Funk, funk, ya'll
