Grow Some Funk Of Your Own - Elton John
Yeah I looked at my watch
And it said a quarter to five
The headlines screamed that
I was still alive
I couldnt understand it
I thought I died last night
Oh I dreamed Id been in a border town
In a little cantina
That the boys had found
I was desperate to dance
Just to dig the local sounds
When along came a seorita
She looked so good
That I had to meet her
I was ready to approach
Her with my english charm
When her brass knuckled
Boyfriend grabbed me my the arm
And he said grow some
Funk of your own amigo
Grow some funk of your own
We no like to with the gringo fight
But there might be a
Death in mexico tonight
If you can't grow some
Funk of your own amigo
Grow some funk of your own
Take my advice take the next flight
And grow your funk
Grow your funk at home
Well I looked for support
From the rest of my friends
For their vanishing trick
They get ten out of ten
I knelt to pray
Just to see if he would comprehend
I dreamed Id been in a border town
In a little cantina
That the boys had found
I was desperate to dance
Just to dig the local sounds
When along came a seorita
She looked so good
That I had to meet her
I was ready to approach
Her with my english charm
When her brass knuckled
Boyfriend grabbed me my the arm
And he said grow some
Funk of your own amigo
Grow some funk of your own
We no like to with the gringo fight
But there might be a death
In mexico tonight
If you cant grow some
Funk of your own amigo
Grow some funk of your own
Take my advice take the next flight
And grow your funk
Grow your funk at home
