[Verse 1: Pablo Villatoro, Blanca, Manwell]
(Hey now)
Give me your attention
'cause I got somethin' to mention to you (About)
About a young boy who's a preacher's son
And his world was turned up— (—side down)
When he heard the needle drop
And heard the sound of the music playin' (Playin')
Rhythm and blues echoed
Through every room in the house
Music then became my medicine
To heal the world, I became a musician
Started givin' out my own prescriptions (Hey)
Group 1 Crew, your personal physicians
(Um, well, doctor, I'm feelin' sick)
Well, I think I got a cure that can handle it
Gimme a kick, and a snare
And a whole lotta soul
(Hands in the air!)
[Chorus: Blanca, Manwell]
Gimme that funk (Hey)
That funky rhythm that you want
Gimme that beat (Oh)
That makes you get up on your feet
Gimme that melody, melody
You can sing-sing with me
Don't be shy, just keep it live, oh (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
[Verse 2: Blanca, Pablo Villatoro, Manwell, Blanca & Pablo Villatoro]
Just a little bit
A little bit of rhythm when I'm not in time
Just a little bit
I can never get enough, turn it up, 'cause it feels so
Finally, we all agree
Music brings us together like a family
And every note (Uh-oh, uh-oh)
Is like an antidote (Uh-oh, uh-oh)
To all these heavy situations we're facin'
Call up your station, say:
[Chorus: Blanca, Manwell]
Gimme that funk (Hey)
That funky rhythm that you want
Gimme that beat (Oh)
That makes you get up on your feet
Gimme that melody, melody
You can sing-sing with me
Don't be shy, just keep it live, oh (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
[Bridge: Manwell]
I got this feelin' that I can't ignore (Can't ignore)
You gave me more than I was askin' for (Askin' for)
And now, I owe you my life
I could never deny
You inspire what comes outta this mic
[Verse 3: Manwell]
I been down this road before
A little bit has changed, and yet, it all remains the same
See, the kick is the heartbeat of man
Snare is the timin' to keep its order and plans
The hi-hats sit back and forth
Like life's ups and downs we ain't ready for, but
Thank God for the melody
So sweet, reminds me where my heart should be, yeah
[Interlude: Blanca, Manwell]
Feel the rhythm in your soul (Ooh)
Let it move you, let it soothe you
Let it rock-a, rock-a right through you (Uh, yeah, yeah)
Here's the sound we've been waitin' for
Let it flow right out the door, here we go (Gimme that, gimme that, gimme that, gimme that)
[Chorus: Blanca, Manwell]
Funk (Funky, funky)
That funky rhythm that you want
Gimme that beat (Gimme that, makes you)
That makes you get up on your feet
Gimme that melody, melody
You can sing-sing with me
Don't be shy, just keep it live (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
Gimme that funk (Funky, funky) (Hey)
That funky rhythm that you want
Gimme that beat (Gimme that, makes you) (Oh)
That makes you get up on your feet (Get up on your feet)
Gimme that melody, melody
You can sing-sing with me
Don't be shy, just keep it live, oh (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
