"Funky Broadway" is a song written by Arlester "Dyke" Christian. It was originally recorded by his band, Dyke & the Blazers, in 1967, and was made into a hit by Wilson Pickett that same year.

The song reached number one on the Billboard Hot Soul Singles chart and number eight on its Hot 100 chart.[1] The song is notable as being the first charted single with the word "Funky" in the title as well as being prototypical funk music itself.
