[Intro: Doug E. Fresh]
(Push it up)
(Push it up)
Put your hands up, come on
(Push it up)
Huh yeah, this is it, this is it
(Push it up)
This is it
I think they got to get ready for this one here, come on
(Ooh, everybody's here, this is the jam of the year)
Say what?
Huh, what did I hear?
(Push it up)
(Push it up)
Uh, wasn't quite clear
(Ooh, everybody's here, this is the jam of the year)
Say what?
Oh, huh, I hear ya, huh
(Push it up)
(Push it up)
Come on, uh
[Verse 1: Prince]
If you're ever down draggin' on the ground
Face twisted with a funky frown
Let me turn you on to somethin' that I found
To make you feel good, feel good
[Verse 2: Larry Graham]
Negativity like gravity
Gotcha fallin' fast from reality
You gotta get up, put up, move up
And just do what you should, you should
[Pre-Chorus: Prince & Marva King]
Realize that you are somebody
Come on, y'all, and join the party
Everybody grab a body
And feel good, you should
[Chorus: Prince]
Push it up, push it up, push it up, push it up
(Ooh, everybody's here, this is the jam of the year)
(Push it up)
(Push it up)
Push it up, push it up, push it up, push it up
(Ooh, everybody's here, this is the jam of the year)
(Push it up)
(Push it up)
[Verse 3: Prince]
Push it up, push it up to the sky
You don't have to have a plane to fly
If you listen' to the truth and not the lie
Stop cryin', cryin'
[Verse 4: Larry Graham]
In harmony, can't u see
Every color all in the same key
And that's the way Jah wants us to be
Start tryin', a-tryin'
[Pre-Chorus: Prince & Marva King]
Realize that you are somebody
Come on, y'all, and join the party
Everybody grab a body
And feel good, you should
[Chorus: Prince]
Push it up, push it up, push it up, push it up
(Ooh, everybody's here, this is the jam of the year)
(Push it up)
(Push it up)
Push it up, push it up, push it up, push it up
(Ooh, everybody's here, this is the jam of the year)
(Push it up)
(Push it up)
[Interlude: Doug E. Fresh]
Come on, wake up your body, wake up your body
Wake up your body and move it around, come on
Yeah, huh
Where the party at in here, y'all?
Where the party goin' down in here? uh
[Verse 5: Doug E. Fresh & Prince]
Now I wanna know who's ready to show me
Get on down with the one and only party ambassador
Flip styles like a spatula mac-tacula
More legend than a new Acura
Body tone stone while I rap to her
Capture her thinkin' I'm a mac to her
Just because I'm attracted to her
But the fact of the matter is the dance floor's phatter
The crowd's on fire as we push it up higher
[Interlude: Doug E. Fresh]
(Push it up)
Come on, y'all
(Push it up)
Put your hands in the air
(Push it up)
Come on, y'all
(Push it up)
While The Artist turn it up, come, uh
Yeah, huh
Break it on down
(Push it up)
(Push it up)
Huh
[Outro: Chaka Khan]
(This is the jam, this is the jam, this is the jam of the year
This is the jam, this is the jam, this is the jam of the year)
Push it up, push it, push it up
Push it up, push it, push it up
Push it up, push it, push it up
Push it up, push it, push it up
Everybody grab a body, everybody push it up
Everybody grab a body, everybody push it up
On and on till the early morn', push it up
Push it up, push it, push it up
Push it up, push it, push it up
Push it up
(Push it up)
(Push it up)
Put your hands up, come on
(Push it up)
Huh yeah, this is it, this is it
(Push it up)
This is it
I think they got to get ready for this one here, come on
