Start Me Up Lyrics by The Folksmen

A Mighty Wind - The Album

2003

If you start me up (Start me up)
If you start me up I'll never stop
If you start me up (Start me up)
If you start me up I'll never stop
I've been running hot (Running hot)
You got me ticking, gonna blow my top
If you start me up (Start me up)
If you start me up I'll never stop
You make a grown man cry (Cry)
You make a grown man cry (Cry)
You make a grown man cry (Cry)
Spread out the oil, the gasoline
I walk smooth, she's a mean, mean machine
If you start it up (Start it up)
Kick on the starter, give it all you got
I can't compete (Can't compete)
With the riders in the other heats
If you rough it up (Rough it up)
If you like it you can slide it up (What's that?) slide it up
You make a grown man cry (Cry)
Don't make a grown man cry (Cry)
Don't make a grown man cry (Cry)
My eyes dilate, my lips go green
My hands are greasy, she's a mean machine
Wooo hooo wooo hooo wooo hooo wooo hooo
If you start me up (Start me up)
If you start me up I'll never stop
If you start me up (Start me up)
If you start me up I'll never stop
I've been running hot (Running hot)
You got me ticking, gonna blow my top
If you start me up (Start me up)
If you start me up I'll never stop
You make a dead man cum (Cum)
You make a dead man cum (Cum)
You make a dead man cum (Cum)
You make a dead man cum (Cum)
You make a dead man cum (Cum)
You make a dead man cum (Cum)
You make a dead man cum (Cum)
You make a dead man kumbaya
