Lyrics
MOJO MAN
by Willie Lomax
GODZILLA
KING KONG
SEE ME COMING, THEY BE GONE
?CAUSE I?M THE MOJO MAN
AND I DO LIKE I PLEASE
I CAN TAME A HURRICANE WITH THE GREATEST OF EASE
I?M THE MOJO MAN AND I DO LIKE I PLEASE
I WAS A LOCKSMITH OF LOVE AT THE AGE OF TEN
I COULD LIGHT A GIRL?S FIRE AGAIN AND AGAIN
I COULD SHOOT FROM THE HIP AT AGE 21
KILL THE LADIES WITHOUT FIRING A GUN
?CAUSE I?M THE MOJO MAN
AND I DO LIKE I PLEASE
I CAN TAME A HURRICANE WITH THE GREATEST OF EASE
I?M THE MOJO MAN AND I DO LIKE I PLEASE
SOLOS
C.I.A.
F.B.I.
COULDN?T STOP ME
(BOY) DID THEY TRY
BOOGIE CILLUN?
TIPPY TOES
?CAUSE WHERE I?M GOING, NOBODY KNOWS
?CAUSE I?M THE MOJO MAN
AND I DO LIKE I PLEASE
I CAN TAME A HURRICANE WITH THE GREATEST OF EASE
I?M THE MOJO MAN AND I DO LIKE I PLEASE
SOLO
C.I.A.
F.B.I.
COULDN?T STOP ME
(BOY) DID THEY TRY
BOOGIE CILLUN?
TIPPY TOES
?CAUSE WHERE I?M GOING, NOBODY KNOWS
?CAUSE I?M THE MOJO MAN
AND I DO LIKE I PLEASE
I CAN TAME A HURRICANE WITH THE GREATEST OF EASE
I?M THE MOJO MAN AND I DO LIKE I PLEASE
GODZILLA
KING KONG
SEE ME COMING, THEY BE GONE
?CAUSE I?M THE MOJO MAN
AND I DO LIKE I PLEASE
I CAN TAME A HURRICANE WITH THE GREATEST OF EASE
I?M THE MOJO MAN AND I DO LIKE I PLEASE
