The Deacon Work

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Ah, have you ever seen Deacon Charlie work? (Have you ever seen him?) Have you ever sit back and watched him jerk? (See Deacon Charlie work, now) I can funky Broadway, you know I can boogaloo (Charlie work, now) And I've even been known to shingaling too (Shame on me) [Pre-Chorus] Oh, and you can surely dance, babe You know you ain't seen nothin' yet [Chorus] 'Til you sit back and see Charlie work (Charlie work, now) You gotta see Deacon Charlie work [Verse 2] Now they say that I'm gettin' a little old (Have you ever seen him?) But ask any young babe, and she'll tell you I got plenty soul (See Deacon Charlie work, now) People are gossipin' all over town (Charlie work, now) Talkin' about me and that girl down the street, little miss round [Pre-Chorus] Oh, she came, people, bit my share Tellin' everybody you better shut up (Ah, yeah) [Chorus] 'Cause Deacon Charlie can surely work (Charlie work, now) You gotta see Deacon Charlie work [Verse 3] Oh, Sunday, after meetin' is over and done I grab me a sister and dance 'til the break of dawn Work out, Charlie Work out, Deacon Charlie (See Deacon Charlie work, now) [Bridge] Feelin' alright, now (Yeah) Somebody please pass the plate (Charlie work, now) [Verse 4] Now you might look down on me (Have you ever seen him?) You might talk about everything I do (See Deacon Charlie work, now) Just take a survey, and baby, you will see (Charlie work, now) That there's many deacons like me (Charlie, work out) [Pre-Chorus] So you may as well face the facts Pull up a chair, sit back and relax, baby [Chorus] And watch the Deacon work (Charlie work, now) Gotta see Deacon Shorty work (Charlie work, now) Ow [Outro] Cool it, man, cool it, here come the judge, cool it, you better cool it 'cause here come the judge (Charlie work, now) (Charlie work, now) (Charlie work, now)
