 PRINCE - Minneapolis Lyrics

Performed by Minneapolis
Composed by Sonny T.
M P L[L] S
I used 2 play the gig at Archie's Bunker
Then I up and joined the Jeffersons
I was in a band with Lenny Kravitz's mama [Your mother]
Friday night was good every now and then
Now I'm old and doin' so much better [So much better]
Sellin' the wax out the back o' my Subaru
Now I cut this groove with a group called Minneapolis [Minneapolis]
12o131!2111816poo4i
In this here groove, they know just what 2 do, do

CHORUS:
MPLS funkin' house from east 2 west
MPLS funkin' [Shut up]
MPLS - Clinton listen, A on test
MPLS funkin' [Shut up]
[Funkin']

Other people's parties they be fightin'
They're pullin' the guns and actin' like a fool
The way I see it, the more good they be writin'
Makin' U wish that U stayed in a funky school [School]
First class - Guitar 101, James Brown - second hour
Horn part, U ain't got none unless U got Tower of Power
Bootsy will teach U all U need 2 know about the booty bass [Y'all are crazy]
And if U can't play 7, 7 on the drums, U better not show your face [U ain't funky]

CHORUS

Funkin'
Nobody buy my joint, it's cool cuz I got one [Hell yeah]
All the others cut 4 radio and cheat the fan
Good time - take us 2 the stage and watch us move your big butt
Cuz everybody, everybody's gettin' funky in this band

Who's in the band guys?
Sgt. Rock [Sonny T, yeah, that's..that's me] [M] [P]
Sittin' in from St. Paul [We're the S-t-e-e-l-e-s] [L] [S]
Cutie Pie on vocals [Jam] [M]
And by way of Queens [Master T] [P] [L] [S]
Hey, U ain't supposed 2 be on this record

MPLS funkin' house from east 2 west
MPLS funkin' [Shut up]
MPLS - Clinton listen, A on test
MPLS funkin'
We just keep funkin'
We just keep funkin'
Get funky

Party people steady pumpin'
Party people steady pumpin'
