  • Mama's in her kitchen
    She's stirrin' in a pot
    Daddy's sittin' waiting to see what she's got
    He's sitting by the fireplace with his hands on his
    Knees
    He looked around at mama said, "Hey, you better come
    See about me."

    Let's get funky
    Yea, get it on
    Right on

    Now every time I see you
    You know you're lookin' cool
    You're lookin' like you want to do it
    But, you ain't got the tools

    I wanna teach you somethin' that's not from the Golden
    Rule
    This is something baby that you can't learn in school

    Let's get funky
    Yea, get it on
    Right on

    Let's get funky, yea
    Baby, get it on
    Right on
    Right on
    Get it on, get it on
    Right on
    (Incomprehensible)
    Right on
    (Incomprehensible)
    Right on
    (Incomprehensible)
    Right on
    (Incomprehensible)
    Right on
    Do it, do it, do it.
    Right on

    Da da da dat dat dat dat da da dat
    Da da da dat dat dat dat da da dat
    Da da da dat dat dat dat da da dat
    Whooo

    I know you had your trip down on funky broadway street
    But this is a diff'rent thing with a whole diff'rent
    Meaning
    It matters not where you been
    But where you wanna go
    If the music moves you just get on the floor

    And let's get funky
    Get it on
    Right on

    Let's get funky
    Baby, get it on
    Right on
    Right on

    Let's get funky
    Get it on
    Right on Writer/s: BRIAN KEENAN, GEORGE E. CHAMBERS, JOSEPH LAMAR CHAMBERS, LESTER CHAMBERS, WILLIE MACK CHAMBERS
