This and You Dropped a Bomb On Me are the only two songs needed to explain what Funk is period End of Lesson !! I'm a Metal guitarist for over 40 years and I jam this Fantastic Funk on my Guitar all these years later . Used to use one of these songs in my big Hair and eyeliner days and it went over well because the chicks wanted to Dance ! We added some distortion and played the Keys parts on Guitar but it worked really well . Thank You Charlie and The Gap Band for great memories and times in my youth ...

Thank you, thank you, thank you, for being the only source on the entire internet that has the proper words to this song. Specifically talking about 2:12 verse. Also, seems like this is unique recording to other versions. Nice!
Just because you're not for real = Jenny put the knife away Hahahaha this will always be the lyrics to me...RIP my tio Ralph Mendez 3-28-18 who made this verse up on his own and had our whole family singing it his way. Love you tio until I see you again.
"I went to the closet and saw no clothes. All I saw was Hangers and poles" Thanks, I never picked that up Good job! .She really burned rubber on him. However, those are some great lyrics!
I don't think he'd be saying his own name as the person who burned rubber on himself. Doesn't make any sense. I can guarantee YOU that he's not saying Charlie. He's definitely saying Charlene. You can clearly hear it.
He's saying Charle. I know this because he says me before he says it and his name is Charle. So basically he's saying "your gonna burn rubber on me" and then states his name and then says"oh no no no" (Sorry for going off on a reply probably no one will see...)
This song is a straight classic!🔥🔥
Circa 1982😊
Top 5 Funk/R&B/Black Rock of the 70's and 80's. These guys were just awesome.

🎉 you forget three this one stay with me and early in the morning season no reason to change and party train 🎉🎉
Woo, I gave you my money, I gave you my time
Why you wanna hurt me, gurl
Are you serious, I'm just curious
Why you wanna hurt me, gurl
Just because you're not for real
Why you wanna hurt me, girl
Just because you're not for real
Why you wanna hurt me, girl
Never, ever had a lover
Who put the pedal to the mettle
And burn rubber on me, Charlie
Oh, no
You took my money, you took my time
Made me think everything was fine
Then you upped and ran away
And made me just go crazy
I never, ever had a lover
Who put the pedal to the metal
And burn rubber on me, Charlie
Oh, no, no, no
Just because you're not for real
Why you wanna hurt me, girl
Just because you're not for real
Why you wanna hurt me, girl
I never, ever had a lover
Who put the pedal to the metal
And burn rubber on me, Charlie
Oh, no, no, no
Just because you're not for real
Why you wanna hurt me, girl
Just because you're not for real
Why you wanna hurt me, girl
You told me to go up the block
And get you a strawberry pop
When I got back to the flat
You had burned rubber out the back
I went to the closet and saw no clothes
All I saw was hangers and poles
I went to the phone and called your mother
And told me you had burned rubber on me, Charlie
Oh, no, no
Oh, no, no
Oh, no, no
Just because you're not for real
Why you wanna hurt me, girl
Just because you're not for real
Why you wanna hurt me, girl
I never, ever had a lover
Who put the pedal to the metal
And burned rubber on me, Charlie
Oh, no, no, no, no, oh, no, yeah, yeah
Just because you're not for real
Why you wanna hurt, me girl
Just because you're not for real
Why you wanna hurt me , girl
You took my money, you took my time
Made me think everything was fine
Like the clock on the wall, said ding-ding-dong
Got to find another lover that won't be gone
She won't put the pedal to the metal
And burn rubber, burn rubber, on me, Charlie
No, no, no, no
I never, ever had a lover
Who put the pedal to the metal
And burned rubber on me, Charlie
No, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no

"I went to the closet and saw no clothes. All I saw was Hangers and poles" Thanks, I never picked that up Good job! .She really burned rubber on him. However, those are some great lyrics!

@ Dune137, lol!! me 2!! i always thought it was 'Charlene, 2.
Are you serious im just curious..
Good j
Groll's money maker
I alwYs thought it was Charlene. It's really Charlie?
Stacey F. Yall killing me...
It's Charlene! But this gives me the idea to use Charlie if I want to swap genders and sing this at karaoke.
No, its Charlie...Charlie Wilson, ya'll! In other words he's saying nobody ever did him that way...speaking in 3rd person.
It’s Charlene. You can check google lyrics.
Me, too.
Not Charlie, it a girl named Charlene. Please correct the lyrics.
daddeo01905 are u fucking serious homie?! Man... shouts out to Uncle Charlie Wilson
...I can guarantee you that he's saying HIS name, not 'Charlene'. LMAO
I don't think he'd be saying his own name as the person who burned rubber on himself. Doesn't make any sense. I can guarantee YOU that he's not saying Charlie. He's definitely saying Charlene. You can clearly hear it.
Charlie is talking in the 3rd person. I was confused too.
He's saying Charle. I know this because he says me before he says it and his name is Charle. So basically he's saying "your gonna burn rubber on me" and then states his name and then says"oh no no no"
(Sorry for going off on a reply probably no one will see...)
Just found out how it's feeling for this to happen to a person
I feel
*Just because you're not for real*
*Why you wanna hurt me, Girl?*
RodrigoLcva *I never ever had a love*
@@popcorntherealpopcorn2027 *Put the metal to the petal and burn rubber on me Charlie/Charlene🤷🏾♀️? Oh no, no, no*
CHARLENE.....burned rubber on Charlie the singer. They lyrics are Charline not Charlie1
The lyrics is Charlie he says Burn rubber on me charlie indicating himself
@@screamthakilla264....why can't people get that?
@@msdaryllgirl We don't want the song to come off as gay. But he is indeed saying Charlie taking in the 3rd person.
dr dre genocide brought me here
Charlie sounds like a mans name wtf
He's talking about himself....it's Charlie Wilson.
YEAH YEAH 1980. JIZONT
