Going to a go-go, come on now

Going to a go-go, everybody
Going to a go-go, come on now


Well there's a brand new place I've found
People come in from miles around
They come from everywhere, if you drop in there
You see everyone in town


Going to a go-go, everybody
Going to a go-go, come on now

Don't you want to go?
And that's all right
Tell me

Going to a go-go, everybody
Going to a go-go


It doesn't matter if you're black
It doesn't matter if you're white
You take a dollar fifty, a six pack of beer
We're going to dance all night

Going to a go-go, everybody
Going to a go-go, come on now

Don't you want to go?
And that's all right
Tell me

on't you want to go?
And that's all right
Tell me

Going to a go-go, everybody
Going to a go-go

It doesn't matter if you come in drag
It doesn't matter if you come in stag
I'm telling everyone to get down here
Every taxi that you flag is...

Going to a go-go, everybody
Going to a go-go

Don't you want to go?
And that's all right
Tell me

Yeah
And that's all right
Yeah
