Rhythms coursing through my veins,
Melodies forming in my brain.
This is where we live, this is where we live,
This is where we live, this is where we live.
Big dog chase us through the alley,
Frankfurt, London, back to Cali.
This is where we live, this is where we live,
This is where we live, this is where we live.
Where can we go, we ask ourselves, where we would not be desperate and cold?
Is God giving us something to call a home? (this is where we live, this is where we live)
If you can do it, I can do it too,
And we can do it,
If you can do it, I can do it too, (this is where we live, this is where we live)
And we can do it,
Everybody...
Someone will hold the nail, (someone will hold the nail)
I'll hit the hammer on two, (I'll hit the hammer on two, baby, babe)
We'll tie the big do up by the tail, 'til we find a way to get through. (tie the big do by the tail)
We got a guitar on the left, guitar on the right, and the bass in the middle of the mix,
I haven't heard a Fender Rhodes this funky since 1976,
I think that 118 beats per minute might do the trick,
And Johnny Knox with a hype kick-drum laying the groove so thick.
Whatever you do, got to keep it funky,
Keep it funky,
Let's keep it funky, yeah,
Keep it funky,
Got to keep it funky,
Everybody, everybody, everybody, everybody.
This is where we live, this is where we live, yeah, (this band is our house)
This is where we live, this is where we live, (this band is our house)
This is where we live, this is where we live. (this band is our house)
