Get yourself together, |
And drive your funky soul. |

Get yourself together, |
And drive that funky soul. |
And I believe |
They’rra drivin' their self… |
With that funky soul. |
In Houston, Texas, |
They’rra gettin' their self together' |
With the funky soul. |
In Mobile, Alabama, |
They gettin' that funky soul. |

Los Angeles-raise up-get yourself together, |
And drive that funky soul. |

And drive that funky soul. |

Will one million be enough? |

Get yourself together, |
And drive that funky soul. |
You don’t miss nuthin' you never had, |
But you miss so much you wish you could get, ha! |
I guess you can out that together. |
It takes a man to find a woman |
And takes a woman to find what a man used to be Get up! |
Get on up, |
Get yourself together |
Drive that funky soul. |
Everybody |

Who can drive that funky soul? |
