Lyrics
Poor boy got's no money. Poor boy got's no charm.
Sell his soul down at the fishing hole, now he's livin' on the county farm, he's got the mojo.
Hey hey!, Hey hey!, Hey hey!, Hey hey!
Switchblade in his pocket. Cold steel in his hand.
They say he's goin' down tonight but I hope they understands he's got the mojo.
Hey hey!, Hey hey!, Hey hey!, Hey hey!
Now he's out there on the street tonight, he's lookin' mighty fine.
His mojo's on the job, that's right!, and it's workin' overtime oh no, oh yea!
Now way back when, at the beginning of time there was a five star mojo man.
He had lots of girls with long blonde curls and a mojo in the palm of his hand.
He said listen up people all across the land you better, better understand.
While you're gettin' yours I'm gettin' mind 'cause I'm the mojo man, he's got the mojo.
Hey hey!, Hey hey!, Hey hey!, Hey hey!
Now he's out there on the street tonight, he's lookin' mighty fine.
His mojo's on the job, that's right!, and it's workin' overtime oh no!
