[Verse 1]
I went down to the water (oh, oh, oh)
With the help of my father
Out of the lake in mid-June
I pulled my car, Mabu
I need an engine that runs

[Verse 2]
It came down to the wire (oh, oh, oh)
Put the pump to the tire (oh, oh, oh)
It gets me hi-igh-igh-igh
It makes her go-o-o-o

[Bridge]
Now that she's gone so soon
I need a car like Mabu
And you know, she'll come around (oh, oh, oh)
I need an engine that runs

[Break]
I drive my car through lakes and lagoons, oh, oh, oh (oh, oh, oh)
I drive my car, my car Mabu, oh oh oh
