lyrics

Verse 1:
The first times gotta feel
So adventurous
The first time has to feel
So dangerous

And they swing and sway
Rhythm of the day

Like learning how to walk
Someone’s gotta show ya
Like learning how to talk
Someones gotta teach ya

Pre Chorus:
The need to move and
The need to groove no matter
Where we go we just
Need to sing

Chorus:
First Time Funk
Gotta get it wid that funk
First time Funk
Come and get it wid’ that funk

Verse 2:
The motion and the power
Grooving like a fire

And they swing and sway
Motion of the day

The one you must acquire
Burnin’ with desire

Pre Chorus:
The need to move and
The need to groove no matter
Where we go we just
Need to sing

Verse 3:
So now you’ve got the moves
And it’s happenin’
Now you got Somethin' to prove
Time to start clappin'

Pre Chorus:
The need to move and
The need to groove no matter
Where we go we just
Need to sing
(Now, let me hear you sing))

Chorus:
First Time Funk
Gotta get it wid that funk
First time Funk
Come and get it wid’ that funk
