"Mojo Dollar" lyrics
"Mojo Dollar"
Mojo Dollar came riding into town in a '57 Chevrolet
Yeah, he had a 3030 rifle and a red bone hound
Said he wanted to make a trade
I seen him come out of the pawn shop with a guitar in his hand
And it froze me in my tracks when I looked into the eyes of a wild man
I heard the stories when I was just a young boy
People said that Mojo wasn't right
I couldn't get it out of my head so when everyone went to bed
I slipped out the backdoor late that night
Well, I came up on his Chevy and I was scared of going on
But I followed his trail and went deep into wild man swamps
Well, I knew I couldn't turn back when I found his little ol' shack
And Mojo had a big fire in the yard
I couldn't hear a word he said but his eyes rolled back in his head
He just kept on rompin' that ol' guitar
There was hoot owls callin' there were wild cats pantin'
Snakes were crawlin' Mojo started dancin'
He was a wild man he was a wild man
I've tried to forget it but it ain't no use
There are some who don't believe and some who do
But I'm telling it like it is there's still some things going on
And whatever you do don't go down to wild man swamps

Sun beatin' down so hard
Sweat rollin' of this shovel
Diggin' in the devil's boneyard
Sure like a cool drink of water
Soft rag to soothe my face
Sure like a woman to talk...

You make my heart sing
You make everything groovy

So come on and hold me tight

Wild thing
You make my heart...
John Hiatt - "Nothing In My Heart" There's nothing in my heart
There's nothing in my heart
There's just the darkest part
To hide my love away
I keep the memories
I keep the memories
In a hole dug down so deep
To hide my love away...
Roger Hodgson - "The More I Look" The more I look, more I see
The more that life asks of me
The more it hurts, the more I feel
The more it takes time to heal
For easy times they come and they go
They come and they go so quickly
And...
Don Henley - "Goodbye To A River" The rains have come early, they say
We're all gonna wash away
Well, that's all right with me
If heaven's torrent can wash clean
The arrogance that lies unseen
In the damage done since we have gone...
