"Let's Get Funky" Available on All Streaming Platforms: https://moonalice.ffm.to/letsgetfunky
The Chambers Brothers released “Funky” in 1971 and the song broke the Billboard Top 100 despite being deemed too risqué of a song for the time," explains Moonalice vocalist Lester Chambers and legendary co-founder of the pioneering ‘60s psychedelic soul group The Chambers Brothers. "Now it is a new time and a new day, and we all need to get funky every now and then, especially in these crazy times. Moonalice delivers the song in a new, fun, and psychedelic soul jam kinda way. Everyone is lending something special to the song to make it unique and we are so excited for you to hear our latest song. We hope you get funky with us." And adds guitarist Barry Sless, "This is our arrangement of the Chambers Brothers classic. It features some funky grooving from Pete Sears and John Molo on bass and drums, a great synth solo from Jason Crosby, soulful harmonica playing by Lester Chambers, and lively backing vocals from the T-Sisters and Dylan Chambers. At 80 years old Lester is still showing us how to get funky!"

Lyrics:
Mama's in her kitchen
she's stirrin' in a pot
Daddy's sittin' waiting
he wanna see what she's got
Sitting by the fireplace
with his hands on his knee
He looked around at mama said,
"Come See about me."
Let's get funky
Yea, get it on
Let's get funky
Yea, get it on
Now every time I see you
you know you're lookin' cool
You're lookin' like you want to do it
But, you ain't got me fooled
I wanna teach you somethin'
that's not from the Golden Rule
This is something mama
that you can't learn in school
Let's get funky, yeah
Get it on
Let's get funky, yeah
Get it on
Da da da dat dat dat dat da da dat
Da da da dat dat dat dat da da dat
Da da da dat dat dat dat da da dat
Yeah
I know you had your trip
Down on funky Broadway street
This is a different thing
with a whole different meaning
It matters not where you been
But where you wanna go
If the music moves you
get on the floor
And let's get funky, yeah
Get it on
Let's get funky, yeah
Get it on
[solos]
Let's get funky, yeah
Get it on
Let's get funky, yeah
Get it on
Let's get funky, yeah
Let's get it on
Let's get funky, yeah
Let's get it on
Da da da dat dat dat dat da da dat
Da da da dat dat dat dat da da dat
Da da da dat dat dat dat da da dat
Yeah
