Text

Wooo!
Shucks.
It's alright.

Hey, everybody,
Mister Rufus in town.
Came here to take care of business.
Ain't gonna mess around.

I got a brand new dance,
That ain't no bull.
Everybody's doin' it,
Talkin' 'bout push and pull.

I said, push, pull,
Push, pull.
Get on up,
Get on down.
Get on up,
Take it 'round an' 'round.
I said, push, pull.
Push, pull.
(Double up on it.)
Push it, pull it.
Push it, pull it.

Lookee here,
Push it, pull it.
Push it, pull it.
Push it, pull it.
Push it, pull it.
Push it, pull it.
Push it, pull it.
Push it, pull it.
Push it, pull it.

Get out on the floor,
You're gonna get left.
Get on your own, pretty baby,
Now, go for yourself.

It's easy takin'
Candy from a baby.
Don't hand me no bull,
Now you got it, baby.
You got that push and pull.

I said, push, pull.
Push, pull,

Listen, get on up,
Get on down.
Get on up,
Take it 'round and 'round.
I said, push, pull.
Push, pull.

Listen,
Push it.
Pull it.
Push it.
Pull it.
(Double up on it.)
Push it, pull it.
Push it, pull it.
Push it, pull it.
Push it, pull it.
Push it, pull it.
Push it, pull it.
Ahhhwww!

Oh, Mister Clean, and James Brown,
Everybody been messin' around.
I'm doin' a hundred,
And layin' on full,
I got this thing,
Talkin' 'bout push and pull.

I said, push, pull.
Push, pull.
Oohhh-hoh.
Push'n'Pull.
Oohhh-hoh...
