Take me riding in the car, car
Take me riding in the car, car
Take you riding in the car, car
I'll take you riding in my car

Click clack, open up the door, girls
Click clack, open up the door, boys
Front door, back door, clickety clack
Take you riding in my car.

Climb, climb, rattle on the front seat
Spree I spraddle on the backseat
Turn my key, step on my starter,
Take you riding in my car.

Engine it goes boom, boom
Engine it goes boom, boom
Front seat, backseat, boys and girls,
Take you riding in my car.

Trees and the houses walk along
Trees and the houses walk along
Truck and a car and a garbage can,
Take you riding in my car.

Ships and the little boats chug along
Ships and the little boats chug along
Boom buhbuh boom boom boom buh boom,
Take you riding in my car.

I'm a gonna send you home again
I'm a gonna send you home again
Boom, boom, buhbuh boom, rolling home,
Take you riding in my car.

I'm a gonna let You blow the horn
I'm a gonna let you blow the horn
A oorah, a oorah, a oogah, oogah,
I'll take you riding in my car.
