Text: Rufus Thomas. Funky Mississippi.
Everybody expect me to make a new dance
I ain't gonna do it this time
I'm scared to take a chance
But I'm gonna get serious
And I ain't gonna give no jive
I want to know
I'm the funkiest man alive
One o'clock in the morning I'm funky
Two o'clock, etc, etc
I ain't gonna do it this time
I'm scared to take a chance
But I'm gonna get serious
And I ain't gonna give no jive
I want to know
I'm the funkiest man alive
One o'clock in the morning I'm funky
Two o'clock, etc, etc
