Uptown Funk



Charlottesville

September 11, 2021


Such a great song — but what are they saying?


Doh Doh doh doh, doh doh doh Doh doh Doh doh doh, doh doh doh Doh doh Doh doh doh, doh doh doh Doh doh Aaaaaow! This hit, that ice cold Michelle Pfeiffer, that white gold This one, for them hood girls Them good girls, straight masterpieces Stylin', wildin' Livin' it up in the city Got Chucks on with Saint Laurent Gotta kiss myself, I'm so pretty I'm too hot (hot damn) Called a police and a fireman I'm too hot (hot damn) Make a dragon wanna retire, man I'm too hot (hot damn) Say my name, you know who I am I'm too hot (hot damn) Am I bad 'bout that money? Break it down

Girls hit your hallelujah (wooh) Girls hit your hallelujah (wooh) Girls hit your hallelujah (wooh)

'Cause Uptown Funk gon' give it to you (wooh) 'Cause Uptown Funk gon' give it to you 'Cause Uptown Funk gon' give it to you Saturday night, and we in the spot Don't believe me, just watch, come on!

Don't believe me, just watch

Don't believe me, just watch Don't believe me, just watch Don't believe me, just watch Don't believe me, just watch

Hey, hey, hey, oh! Stop Wait a minute Fill my cup, put some liquor in it Take a sip, sign a check Julio, get the stretch Ride to Harlem, Hollywood, Jackson, Mississippi If we show up, we gon' show out Smoother than a fresh jar of Skippy

I'm too hot (hot damn) Called a police and a fireman I'm too hot (hot damn) Make a dragon wanna retire, man I'm too hot (hot damn, hot damn) Bitch, say my name, you know who I am I'm too hot (hot damn) Am I bad 'bout that money? Break it down

Girls hit your hallelujah (wooh) Girls hit your hallelujah (wooh) Girls hit your hallelujah (wooh)

'Cause Uptown Funk gon' give it to you (wooh) 'Cause Uptown Funk gon' give it to you 'Cause Uptown Funk gon' give it to you Saturday night, and we in the spot Don't believe me, just watch, come on!

Don't believe me, just watch

Don't believe me, just watch Don't believe me, just watch Don't believe me, just watch Don't believe me, just watch

Hey, hey, hey, oh! Before we leave I'mma tell y'all a lil' something

Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up I said Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up

Come on, dance, jump on it If you sexy than flaunt it If you freaky then own it Don't brag about it, come show me Come on, dance, jump on it If you sexy than flaunt it Well, it's Saturday night, and we in the spot Don't believe me, just watch, come on!

Don't believe me, just watch

Don't believe me, just watch Don't believe me, just watch Don't believe me, just watch Don't believe me, just watch

Hey, hey, hey, oh! Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up (say what?) Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up (say what?) Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up (say what?) Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up Uptown Funk you up (say what?) Uptown Funk you up

As good as that video is, the one where they put the 1930s to '60 dancers to the same tune is a work of art!!!!

It is a variation on the "Do Wop" of urban street singers of the 1950s & '60s....
