[Harpo]

Ladies and gentlemen

I want y'all to fill yo' glasses up

And sit yo' asses down

Cause tonight in

Harpo's Juke Joint

[Ensemble]

Where?

[Harpo]

Harpo's!

We bring you the finest in southern nobility

The Queen Honey Bee

She was born right here

Made it big in Memphis

And now she's come home to sing for y'all

[Ensemble]

Shug Avery

[Shug Avery]

Now there's something 'bout good loving

That all you ladies should know

If you wanna light your man on fire

You gotta start it real slow

Keep on turning up that voltage

Till that man begin to glow

Like you're switchin' on a lightbulb

Watch the juice begin to flow

Now that I got your attention

Here's what you men need to hear

You want your lady racin' with you

You gotta get her in here

Keep the key to rev her motor

Find the spot she love the best

If you don't know where it is

Give her the stick; she'll do the rest

Push the button

Push the button

You got to push it if you wanna come in

Push the button

Give me somethin'

To let your baby know it ain't no sin

If you wanna feel the train a'comin your way

Baby, push the button and pull the windowshades

Now listen all you redhot lovers

You ought to know what to do

There ain't nothin' wrong with nothin'

That's right, with both of you

So when tonight, you make your lover cry out

Like a lion roar

Tell the neighbors your new kitten found the cream

It's lookin' for

Push the button

Push the button

You got to push it if you wanna come in

Push the button

Give me somethin'

To let your baby know it ain't no sin

If you wanna feel the train a'comin your way

Baby, push the button and pull the windowshades

Come on in

[Shug]

Now ladies, I need you to work a little harder, okay?

I want you to reach down and I need you to find your inner Shug, baby

There ya go! There ya go!

[Shug]

Push the button

Push the button

You got to push it if you wanna come in

Push the button

Give me somethin'

To let your baby know it ain't no sin

If you wanna feel the train a'comin your way

Baby, baby

What do ya gotta do?

[Ensemble]

Push the button!

[Shug]

Push the button!
