Lyrics
Funk City
Chorus
Funk city, grooves to blow your minds.
Funk city, thumping great bass lines.
Funk city, keeping you up on your toes.
Funk city, that's where funky people go.
Verse: 1
Bring your licks, and chuck them down.
Keep it funky, just like James Brown.
From the block, down to the bay.
Ain't what you know, just how you play.
Chorus:
Verse: 2
Music in the street, brass blearing high.
Then come the falls, they'll just make you cry.
We got groove fly overs and underpass.
Jams on the highways, but everyone is moving.
Chorus:
Verse: 3
They got deep blues, still you're feeling fine.
Something for the soul to make you unwind.
Bread and butter in the funky beat,
and the 'Stone Grooves' that keep you on your feet.
