[Verse 1]
Tell me, brother
How do you feel
When the pretty little girl over there ain't for real?
Tell me, sister
How do you feel
When that nappy head brother ain't for real?
[Chorus]
You got to get down, down, down, down, down, down
You got to get down, down, down, down, down, down
[Verse 2]
Tell me, people
How do you feel
When the president and secretaries ain't real?
Tell me, people
What would you do
If the running of the world was all left up to you?
[Chorus]
You got to get down, down, down, down, down, down
Come on then
You got to get down
[Verse 3]
Early in the morning
Before you eat your breakfast
You got to get down
Got to get down
(Early in the morning)
(Before you eat your breakfast)
(You got to get down)
(Got to get down)
If super cool is your pleasure
And you want to find something better
You got to get down
(If super cool is your pleasure)
(And you want to find something better)
(You got to get down)
And if you're running the country
And you ain't running it funky
Better get down
(And if you're running the country)
(And you ain't running it funky)
(You gotta get down)
Police and their justice
Laughing while they bust us
You got to get down
You got to get down
(Police and their justice)
(Laughing while they bust us)
(You got to get down)
(You got to get down)
[Outro]
You gotta get down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
You gotta get down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
You gotta get down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
You gotta get down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
