(Herman, you got a body)
(Funky, funky body, check it out)
(Tell 'em mighty Godfather, go)
 
You've got it on your mind, telling them we are through
You wanna fight the world by yourself, I know it's true
You really don't wanna stay, I know you've made up your mind
But before you go away, see what you left behind
 
Check your body (check your body)
Check it out (check it out)
Check out your (funky, funky) body (your body) body
(Check your body) ooh, ooh, ooh
(Check it out now)
 
So, we just can't get a loan, we just can't get a loan
It's always for others meant
If it's not, where have you been?
It's probably where your money's spent
I know you wanna go, and try on your mind
Your mind is already gone, but before you make a move
 
Check it out! (Check your body)
Check out your funky body (body!)
My man! (Your body) I made it mine
Body! (Body) yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Mm! Say brother, play me a new groove, if you don't mind
 
Mm! You wake up, baby
You make your own money, you drive your own car
You'll never be lonely, to your friends you are a star
You've won every man you need, ah, uh-huh
Ease your troubling mind, and see what you left behind!
 
So check your body (your body)
You better think about it!
And give yourself some time, and check your body
(Check your body) body (body)
Now Fred! (Yeah?)
Move air back over there, and blow your horn, brother
I need a little reverb, 'cause I wanna sound deep and gritty
Pretty lady is on the corner, street lady! Woo!
 
Street lady, street lady, yeah yeah yeah yeah
You star you, street lady, woo!
I can see it now (yeah)
I can see it too (wow)
What you hidden from? (Moments, I can see it)
There you are, think better
Very clear (right, it's definitely), hey sister...
I can see it all night!
Yes, I can see it too
