The Original Disco Man (7" Short Version)
[Intro]
I'm back
Thank you

[Chorus]
He's the original disco man
With the original disco band
He's the original disco man
His groove is where it all began
He's the original disco, disco man
With the original disco, disco band
He's the original, bona fide original
Original disco man

[Verse 1]
In nineteen hundred and fifty-five, hey
People were dancing to all kind of jive, yeah
In nineteen hundred and sixty-six
You all got down with my funky licks
Uh-huh, yeah, hit it!

[Chorus]
He's the original disco man
With the original disco band
He's the original disco man
His groove is where it all began
He's the original disco, disco man
With the original disco, disco band
He's the original, bona fide original
Original disco man
[Verse 2]
I come alive, when the feeling gets right
Uh-huh, baby
I'll make you shake, when the music gets tight
I showed the way for every rock-and-roll band
In the land, yeah
I'm the original
Got to be original
Certified, bona fide disco man!
Hey-hey-hey, hey, hey, hey
Aaaah!
Hit me!

[Bridge]
Mmm...
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Make it soft
But keep it funky, yeah
Ah, so good, yeah
So-so-so-so good, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mmm... bring it up
Bring it up
Bring it up, yeah
Higher, higher
Make me feel higher
Yeah!
[Chorus]
He's the original disco, disco man
With the original disco, disco band
He's the original, bona fide original
Original disco man

[Outro]
Aaah... hit it, hit it, hit it!

You funk them all!
You funk them all, rock!
You funk them all!
