Funk Factory - Wilson Pickett Jr.

Was born in a funk factory, born in a funk factory

Workin' hard like a slave, y’all, comin' up short on my pay, y’all

Some men are stockers, came on the go, yeah

But all I will see in my lifetime, y’all

Was a bass, a drum, my funky home

(Born in a funk factory, born in a funk factory)

Born in a funk factory, workin' like a slave

Comin' up short on my pay

Somebody tell me what’s goin' on wrong

All I’ve known to do in my lifetime

Was to scream, gripe, grump & groan

(Born in a funk factory, born in a funk factory)

(Instrumental)

Some men are stockers, came on the go, yeah

But all I will see in my lifetime, y’all

Was a bass, a drum, my funky home

(Born in a funk factory, born in a funk factory)

Oh I’m gonna tell you

I’m satisfied, y’all, I’m satisfied, y’all

(Repeat & fade):

(I was born in a funk factory)
