Funkadelic – Who Says a Funk Band Can't Play Rock?! Lyrics
Produced By: George Clinton
[Hook]
Who says a jazz band can't play dance music?
Who says a rock band can't play funk?
Who says a funk band can't play rock?
Ok. We're gonna play some funk so loud
We're gonna rock and roll the crowd
Just watch them dance, watch them dance
[Verse 1]
We really love to play
We really want to stay here
Won't you take the time
To get the music on your mind
We'll release you from the bind
[Verse 2]
We've been around for such a while
Be kinda hard not to have a style
When time get slower by the mile
We relax and wear a great big smile
You can count my teeth
[Verse 3]
One, two, three, four, five
People think cause we are here
Our jazz ran out the ships won't steer
No more. We picked up on the rhythm here
If you just take a toot and have a beer
We're gonna make it clear
Yes, and when the morning gets here
Jazz and soul
[Hook]
[Verse 4]
We never take a chance
Music is our one romance, yeah
May I have this dance
Give it a chance
[Hook]×2
[Guitar Solo]
