Rufus Thomas is pretty great. He sings songs about the little things in life. And every one of those little things is somehow "funky." Here is a partial list of funky things, according to Rufus Thomas.
Robots
Hot grits
Chicken
Penguins
Breakdowns
Something
Himself (The Funkiest Man Alive)
Mississippi
something to Get Up Offa
Mashed potatoes
A bird
Those are just my favorites. I think the best one is probably "Something," because it seems like he ran out of things that could be considered "sonically funky" and decided to just say, "Fuck it, I'll go with WHAT EVER."
I like Rufus Thomas.
