[Verse 1]
Gold on my wrist
But it’s all for the groove
Scuffed-up shoes still slide when I move
That cheap cologne
That good attitude
One raised brow like
“You know what to do”

[Pre-Chorus]
You feel that kick in your chest
Don’t fight it
That snap on two and four
Get right in
Your hips say “yes” before your mind can hide it
We already dancin’
We just not decided

[Chorus]
Funk in your body
Don’t fake it (oh!)
Funk in your body
Just take it
Shake that doubt right off your spine
Funk in your body
Now make it mine

[Verse 2]
Red cup sweat run down my hand
Spill a little drip when the line expands
You laugh off-beat
But your feet on time
You lose that cool when the bass hit prime

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Break it down
Bass talk dirty in a low-side whisper
Sweat on your neck when the lights get dimmer
Spin on your heel
Let the whole room shimmer
[call-and-response]
“I got the funk” — You: “I got it”
“I got the groove” — You: “Can’t stop it”

[Chorus]
