Funky Big Band

And the band plays, and the band plays

And the band plays, and the band plays, and the band plays

And the, and the, and the band plays

People gather 'round at the

Lennox Lounge

To hear the funky sounds, baby

The beat hits so hard there's no cover charge

You have to feel the groove

One thing is, you've got to be real

If you wanna hear the funky big band

He who knows it feels it, got to be real

If you wanna hear the funky big band

We who know it feel it

Harlem is the place, where you'll find the face

Of those, who feel the groove, yeah

It's not taught to thee, but it's born to we

Aww and I feel the groove

One thing is, you've got to be real

If you wanna hear the funky big band

He who knows it feels it, got to be real

If you wanna hear the funky big band

We who know it feel it

And the band plays, from the big band

And the band plays, from the big band

Funky, can you feel it?

Oh funky, to be real

Funky, can you feel it?

Oh funky, to be real

Got to be real

If you wanna hear the funky big band

He who knows it feels it, got to be real

If you wanna hear the funky big band

We who know it feel it, we who know it

We who know it, feel this

We who know it, we who know it, feel this

Got to be real, we who know it, feel this

We who know it, feel this

We who know it, feel this

And the band plays, and the band plays...

Got to be real

If you wanna hear the funky big band

He who knows it feels it, got to be real

If you wanna hear the funky big band

We who know it, feel it, we who know it

We who know it, feel this

We who know it, we who know it, feel this

Got to be real, we who know it, feel this
