Make It Go lyrics

I was at a party last Friday night

I was so happy, everything was just right

Dancing the night away, having such fun

Just the same as everyone

There was this boy with a nice expression

He said "Can I make a suggestion?

I have my car parked right outside

How would you like to take a ride?

First you must push it to make it go

First you must push it to make it go"

Pushed and I pushed to walk his machine

I said "It'd be better if we were a team"

He said "But we are, what you're talking about?"

I said "It'd be easier if you got out"

But he said "Honey, someone must drive"

I understood, so I said "Why not I?"

He said "Maybe you have a licence

But I can see you're inexperienced"

So I had to push it to make it go

So I had to push it to make it go

If I had known what kind of boy you are

I'd have given you No for an answer

Instead all this talk out here all this while

I must have pushed this thing half a mile

So I started going back inside

He said "Honey, how about a ride?"

I replied, I laid it like it's true

I told him exactly what he could do:

"Why don't you push it to make it go?

Why don't you push it to make it go?"
