Spoken: Now everybody's talkin'
about funky Broadway...
And everybody's talkin'
about funky Philadelphia...
But I wanna tell you about my home town..
Funky Byhalla Mississippi...

Sung: Come and go with me now...
Down in Mississippi~~...
Come and go with me now~...
Down in Mississippi~~...

Now we got a street
That we call~ Townes Street...
And that's where all the
groovy country folks meet...
and one every corner...
They got a greasy spoon...
And they do the boogaloo..
Just like they want to...

Now we don't have hippies
Down in Mississippi
But we.. funky funky just the same...
Funky Mississippi...
Funky Mississippi...

Hey Vince {Funky Mississippi...}
Play me a little of that funky bass over there...
{Funky Mississippi...}
Now that's the kind of music
That makes you wanna do some oh yeah
{Funky Mississippi...}
Hey guitar...
{Funky Mississippi...}
Play me a little of that funky guitar will ya?...
I like that
{Funky Mississippi...}
Oh Ain't that good..
{Funky Mississippi...}
Play your guitar Steve... Aw Shucks..
{Funky Mississippi...}
Now that's what I call real funk...
Only place you can get it is
{Funky Mississippi...}
Down in Mississippi...

Come and go with me now...
Down in Mississippi~~...
Come and go with me now~...
Down in Mississippi~~...

Now we don't have hippies
Down in Mississippi
But we.. funky funky just the same...
Funky Mississippi...
On Saturday night
{Funky Mississippi...} Woo~...

Funky Mississippi...
{Funky Mississippi...}
It's so so good
{Funky Mississippi...}
Way down in Funky Mississippi...

Funky Mississippi...
Funky Mississippi...
Funky Mississippi...
Funky Mississippi...

Now we don't have hippies
Down in Mississippi
But we.. funky funky just the same...
