Lyrics

[Chorus]

Go down for the one

Come up on the two

Go down for the funk game

Go down for the one

Come up on the two

Go down for the funk game

[Verse 1]

I recall the rise and fall

In the funky little jams we used to throw down to

Am I coming through?

For those who know the two-step flow

You'll remember how we used to love the "tic tac toe"

It was strong but slow

[Refrain]

Let it overcome you

'Til you got no choice to

Tune in to what we wanna see you do

[Chorus]

Go down for the one

Come up on the two

Go down for the funk game (Oh, get down)

Go down for the one

Come up on the two

Go down for the funk game

[Verse 2]

As you chill, recall the thrill of intoxicating moves that made you feel so high

Like the butterfly

And I would doubt you'd be without the best of what the DJ had to play to you, uh

Like he oughta do

[Refrain]

Let it overcome you

'Til you got no choice to

Tune in to what we wanna see you do

[Chorus]

Go down for the one

Come up on the two

Go down for the funk game (Get down, get down, ayy)

Go down for the one

Come up on the two

Go down for the funk game

[Bridge]

Move your body to the funk (Just move it)

Move your body to the funk (Oh, won't you get down?)

Move your body to the funk

Move your body to the funk

Move your body to the funk

Move your body to the funk (Just move it)

Move your body to the funk (Move it, move it, move it, move it up for me)

Move your body to the funk

[Refrain]

Let it overcome you (Let it overcome you)

'Til you got no choice to ('Til you got no choice to)

Tune in to what we wanna see you do (Sing it, sing it, oh, won't you go and get down?)

[PreChorus]

Down, like you know you should

Better get up on the old school flavour

Down, like you know you should

(Get up) Get down (Get up), get down (Get down)

Down, like you know you should

Better get up on the old school flavour

Down, like you know you should

Get down, get down (You gotta, you gotta, you gotta get down)

[Chorus]

Go down for the one

Come up on the two

Go down for the funk game (Oh, have you got it, people?)

Go down for the one

Come up on the two (Go down)

Go down for the funk game (Ooh, everybody)

Go down for the one (Get down)

Come up on the two (Oh, wanna get down)

Go down for the funk game (Oh, have you got it, people?)

Go down for the one

Come up on the two (Just move it)

Go down for the funk game

[Outro]

Down, like you know you should (You should)

Better get up on the old school flavour (Get up)

Down, like you know you should (Get up)

(Get up) Get down (Get up), get down (Get down)

Down, like you know you should

Better get up on the old school flavour

Down, like you know you should

Get down, get down (Won't you, won't you sing it? Won't you?)

Down, like you know you should

Better get up on the old school flavour

Down, like you know you should

Get down, get down

Down, like you know you should

Better get up on the old school flavour

Down, like you know you should

Get down, get down

Down, like you know you should (You should)

Better get up on the old school flavour (Come on)

Down, like you know you should

Get down, get down (Get up, get down)

Down, like you know you should

Better get up on the old school flavour

Down, like you know you should (Won't you, won't you sing it? Won't you?)

Get down, get down

Down, like you know you should

Better get up on the old school flavour

Down, like you know you should (Won't you sing it?)

Get down, get down

Down, like you know you should

Better get up on the old school flavour

Down, like you know you should

Get down, get down

Down, like you know you should

Better get up on the old school flavour

Down, like you know you should

Get down, get down
