Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Gotta make a move to a town that's right for me
Town to keep me movin', keep me groovin' with some energy
[PreChorus]
Well, I talk about it, talk about it, talk about it, talk about it
Talk about, talk about, talk about movin'
Gotta move on
Gotta move on
Gotta move on
[Chorus]
A-won't you take me to Funkytown?
Won't you take me to Funkytown?
Won't you take me to Funkytown?
Won't you take me to Funkytown?
[Chorus]
Won't you take me to Funkytown?
Won't you take me to Funkytown?
Won't you take me to Funkytown?
Won't you take me to Funkytown?
[Verse 2]
Gotta make a move to a town that's right for me
Town to keep me movin', keep me groovin' with some energy
[PreChorus]
Well, I talk about it, talk about it, talk about it, talk about it
Talk about, talk about, talk about movin'
Gotta move on
Gotta move on
Gotta move on
[Chorus]
A-won't you take me to Funkytown?
Won't you take me to Funkytown?
Won't you take me to Funkytown?
Won't you take me to Funkytown?
[Chorus]
Won't you take me to Funkytown?
Won't you take me to Funkytown?
Won't you take me to Funkytown?
Won't you take me to Funkytown? Yeah
[Chorus]
Won't you take me down to Funkytown?
Won't you take me down to Funkytown?
Won't you take me down to Funkytown?
Won't you take me down to Funkytown?
Won't you take me to
Funkytown?
Won't you take me to

[Outro]
Take me, won't you take me?
Take me, won't you take me?
Take me (Won't you take me to?)
Won't you take me?
Take me (Won't you take me to?)
Won't you take me?
I wanna go (Won't you take me to?)
To Funkytown
I wanna go (Won't you take me to?)
To Funkytown
I wanna go (Won't you take me to?)
To Funkytown now
I wanna go (Won't you take me to?)
To Funkytown
