Funkadelic - Groovallegiance Lyrics






'Bout that time
They asked me where was I going
Ya know
I, said, well
You have to be reasonable
So you know
I've never been away from home before
And, uh, besides
They gave me a good deal
And I think that, uh
Funkadelica is
You know, the nation,
Uh, you know, I would like to, live under
(What in the world is this boy talking about?)

Pledge a groovallegiance to the funk
The United Funk of Funkadelica
Uh, dey funk, well dey funk, today funk
Of da United Funk of Funkadelica

I pledge groovallegiance to the flag
Of funky, funky, funkadelica, yeah

(What)
Who
With the united funk we can fly!

For if our cause was unjust
We couldn't bring this funk to you.
So we feel that it's a must
It is something we should do

Let me take you by the hand
And spread the funk across the land
It's not hard to understand
Headin' for the master plan...

Pledge a groovallegiance to the funk
(Oh yeah)
The United Funk of Funkadelica
Oh Yea-Hoo
Dey do do do da funk
Do da funk-de e de dee

Pardon me, but I can tell
We know each other very well
Take my funk and let it grow
And then we'll funk some more

Please come on, come all to the funk
Let your feelings grow as one
Join this nation, you will see
That we can make you free
Dip-Dip de-diddy-de-dep-dee

Pledge a groovallegiance to the funk
The United Funk of Funkadelica
Do dey, do dey funk?
Oh yeah
Do dey funk
Un, hum

So if you just take the time
You'd see we need to draw the line
When we do I'm sure you'll find
That we come to free your mind
Oh yeah

Do-doop--doop do-do-wow
Doobie-doobie-doop-do-wow

Do you promise to funk, the whole funk and
Nothing but the funk
Go funk-um

    Lord thank you for the music. Never will we get to hear another group of musicians with this talent. From songwriting, to singing, lead, rythmn and bass guitar, keyboards and percussion, these guys are taking a back seat to no one.

  6. C.... L....

    This was a very spcial time in funk history. George Clinton commissioned Walter Morrison to come aboard as a writer and performer for the P-funk mob. He broight a great bass player to. Mob named Rodney-"skeets"-Curtis, who is playing solo at this songs ending. Thank U Junie!

    C.... E....

    My brother (a nasty guitarist) was talking to Mike Hampton after a concert. Hampton asks what my bro's favorte solo of his was. The reply was "the end solo from Groovallegiance". Hampton brought him a beer......

  68. p.... ....

    Their being able to bring the funk to you is not proof of anything other than professional musician ambitions. Jus' sayin'. Funk on.

  69. j.... t....

    This is my SHITTTT.

    j.... t....

    100. Also, no facebook either, I wish I could give an extra thumb up. Perhaps even a funkadelic hand throw.

  70. r.... a....

    G. Clinton gets a lot of ink "deservedly" however an interesting question for "clones" would be who to follow most closely, GC or Bernie for me its Bernie.

    r.... a....

    reuben allen Bernie was out there. Him and Bootsy did a lot of writing

    r.... a....

    Have you checked out his work with Talking Heads He wrote and performed " Burning Down the House "

    r.... a....

    NO GC no P-Funk

    r.... a....

    ​@roland markland Thank you. Without George's vision and leadership, everyone else would be known as great studio musicians.

  71. S.... F....

    So funky

  72. t.... m....

    this is the sh$$

  73. D.... ....

    Genius can be overstated at times, but this track is Truly GENIUS! THIS TUNE IS OUT OF THIS WORLD.

    D.... ....

    +Halooro agreed

    D.... ....

    This is like funk from the year 2050 😂✌️ we're not even there yet 😩

    D.... ....

    DEVONJ2574 , you said it, this is true music,better than most of the crap we hear today

    D.... ....

    This is the most underrated, yet most talented group of musicians you will ever hear. Imagine youngsters hearing this song for the first time when it dropped in 1978. Even then we understood that these guys were so ahead of their time, but we were used to good music back then anyways. Long live the funk!

  74. P.... R....

    💜✌

  75. J.... ....

    incredible bass work. beautiful

    J.... ....

    Jordan yes that's Rodney skeets curtis on bass this brother and Dennis chambers together had jazz musicians coming to p-funk shows!
