[Verse 1]
F# F#7 F#6 F#
How was I to know... you'd just come a - long,
F#7 F#6
And funk my life up?
F# F#7 F#6 F#
Lips like Debbie, singing sexed-up strawberry songs,
F#7 F#6 F#
Just funk my life up, never heard it coming,
F#7 F#6 F#
Thought, here's just another woman with a shotgun in her hand,
F#7 F#6
(Funk my life up!)
F# F#7 F#6
But she's the bass, she's the beat, she's the rhythm,
F# F#7 F#6
She's the band! (Just funk my life up!)
[Chorus]
F# C#
And the girl's so fine, makes you wanna...
E B
...Scream, 'Halle - luiah!'

Yeah - ah, ah, ah-----ah!
F# F#7 F#6
Yeah - ah, ah, ah-----ah!
[Verse 2]
F# F#7 F#6 F# F#7 F#6
Sly hand, spinning wax like ...silk,
F# F#7 F#6 F# F#7 F#6
Beats are dripping on me ...like spider milk,
B7
And I never got the warning, when I woke up this morning...
B7
...With my sunshine on a drip,
B A F# F#7
But she's my rock, she's my bud,
F#6 F# F#7 F#6
She's te - quila, she's the trip!
[Chorus]
F# C#
And the girl's so fine, makes you wanna...

...Scream, 'Halle - luiah!'
B7 F# F#7 F#6
Yeah - ah, ah, ah-----ah!

Yeah - ah, ah, ah-----ah!
[Verse 3]
F# F# F# F#
Now how could I refuse? I'm not fit to choose,
F# F#
(Funk my life up!) Said, the only way I'd win...
F# F#
...is the way I'd lose---, (Just funk my life up!)
B7 B7
And I nev - er got the script, ...I unzipped,
B7 B7
Got a bit wet up in my brain, (Just funk my life up!)
B A F# F# F#
'Cause... she's your church, ...she's your sin,
F# F#
She's atomic, ...she's the rain! (Just funk my life up!)
[Chorus]
F# C#
And the girl's so fine, makes you wanna...
E B
...Scream------------'
B7 F# F#7 F#6

F# F#
She gets me sil - ly, she's like a trick on me,
F# F#
Hell, I don't even know her name,
But, yeah, she sticks to me,
F# F#
And in her cli - max she would scream with me,
F# F#
Oh, yeah, she sticks to me!
[Bridge]
B7 B7
She gets me fun - ny, she doesn't want none of my money,
B7 B7
So I pour it over her like gasoline,
B7 F#
Light a match, and then I'm back in my teens,
B7 F#
Me and Supergirl, smoking my green,
B7 F#
Me and Supergirl, smoking my green,
F# F#7 F#6
Unload, ...reload, ...ice pack, ...schwing,
F# F#7 F#6
Sweet thing, ...nose ring, ...jet pack, ...sing,
F# A B
Roundhouse, ...knock down, ..last round!
[Chorus]

And the girl's so fine, makes you wanna...
