[Intro] (Doom, doom, doo-doo) in my soul, yeah (Doom, doom, doo-doo) in control, yeah (Doom, doom, doo-doo) let it roll, yeah (Doom, doom, doo-doo) feel the funk, oh [Verse 1] First time that I heard that groove, my body froze, then moved Heavy on the one so smooth, it told my hips the truth Words can never say that feelin', spine to my knees, I’m reelin' Heartbeat locked in time, revealin' somethin' I can’t refuse [Pre-Chorus] It’s in the way that the bassline walks In the crack of the snare when it talks In the sway of my waist when it drops I try to explain but it stops on my tongue, oh [Chorus] Funk is in my soul, deep down inside I was born with the rhythm you just can’t buy You either hear that call or you pass on by I got that low-down, slow-burn, sweet funk high Funk is in my soul, can’t let it go It’s the language of my body that you can’t control You either feel that heat or you just don’t know I was born with the funk, yeah, it’s in my soul [Verse 2] Every dusty drum hit cracks, it sets my nerves on fire Wah-wah talkin' back to me, it feeds my quiet desire Vibraphone and Rhodes are glidin', strings in the dark are writin' Stories in my skin invitin' anything that I require [Pre-Chorus] It’s in the shake of the conga skins In the hum of the amp when it sings In the slide of the note as it bends I try to define it but then it just slips again, oh [Chorus] Funk is in my soul, deep down inside I was born with the rhythm you just can’t buy You either hear that call or you pass on by I got that low-down, slow-burn, sweet funk high Funk is in my soul, can’t let it go It’s the language of my body that you can’t control You either feel that heat or you just don’t know I was born with the funk, yeah, it’s in my soul [Bridge] You can’t fake this heat, no, you can’t rehearse It’s a curse and a blessing that makes me thirst When that bassline curls 'round my waist so slow I lose my words, but my body knows [Breakdown] Doom doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo (feel the groove) Doom doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo (make a move) Doom doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo (let it flow) Doom doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo (in my soul) [Chorus] Funk is in my soul, deep down inside I was born with the rhythm you just can’t buy You either hear that call or you pass on by I got that low-down, slow-burn, sweet funk high Funk is in my soul, can’t let it go It’s the language of my body that you can’t control You either feel that heat or you just don’t know I was born with the funk, yeah, it’s in my soul [Outro] (Doom, doom, doo-doo) in my soul tonight (Doom, doom, doo-doo) ‘neath the purple light (Doom, doom, doo-doo) if you know, then you know I was born with the funk, yeah, it’s in my soul
