Don't Take My Funk (featuring Catfish Collins and Bobby Womack)
LyricsDon't take my funk, yeah
Don’t take my funk, do something for me
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Don't you do it baby
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Been looking for a long time
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Ah, I can't do without the funk
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Now don't leave my heart a straight baby
I need your loving each and every day
You hit my heart to stay, I can't believe you take me fears away
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Won’t you do that for me
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Don't do it
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Save it for a rainy day
And that's a way back, back to the old school
My funky groove was my survival tool
As long as I can remember, on this song always been 2
We tried to talk to each other to see who's fault went really …
… in the sun and storm
If you had to lean down, I just …
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Don’t you, don’t you take it away
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Uh baby
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Don't take it away, don't take it away from me
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Save it for a rainy day
The one's man funk is another's man pleasure
… old blues, yeah, like it was buried buried treasure
Oh, I need it in the morning, …hour
When the … know my side
With the funk …
Uh baby, don't take it … imitate it, try … fake it
You can stick it, … put your arms to it
Just keep that … so clap hands
Everybody … put your hands together right here
For the … nation, we gonna celebrating, yeah
It's … time, so put a smile on your mind
It's party time baby, so…
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Don't do it
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
You're breaking my heart
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
My funk, my funk
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Save it for a rainy day
Don't take my funk, don't take my funk
Don't take my funk, don't take my funk
Don't take my funk, don't take my funk
Don't take my funk, don't take my funk
Funk me all night long
I need, I need, … all night long
Oh, I am ready to go home,
Please don't take it away
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Don't, please
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Don't take my funk away, don't take my funk away
Save it for a rainy day
Don't take my funk, don't take my funk
Don't take my funk, don't take my funk
Don't take my funk, don't take my funk.
