Movin' On - Mungo Jerry

Got up this morning, I got an aching head

Been sleepin' on the floor ‘cause there’s people in my bed

I’ve been sleepin', sleepin' on the floor, it’s so sad

Think I’ll pack up my belongings and get myself another new pad

The sun is getting hot, burning on my back

Wonder what I’m doing still searching for a flat

I should be swimming, swimming in the deep blue sea

Getting plenty of fresh air instead of working in a factory

Well, I took my guitar and some bread and some clothes

And I started off down the road

I kept walking all day until the sun went down.

Went down, yeah, deep down, melting and sinking into the ground

The watery sky, the tears in its eyes as it sank through the clouds and began

to die

I got down to the coast before the morning tide

I done one hundred miles and it only took three rides

I’m so happy just a sitting here by the sea

The only thing I’m missing is some female company

Rolling in the sand, having lots of fun

Watching all the ladies just lazing in the sun

Well, I got one and she had two good friends as well

I’m gonna buy a bottle of gin and get them as drunk as hell

Well, sitting on the beach drinking ‘round by the fire

I played the guitar and sang a tune

Everybody’s happy just a dancing around.

Dancing around, fooling around, the blood in their veins beginning to pound

Pounding away, the night into day, the morning appears warming the ground

Well, he’s sleeping on the beach and the fuzz come along

They said: ‘You move, you gotta move on'

‘You can’t stay here just drinking that beer'

‘You gotta move, you gotta move on'

‘Come on everybody, stop a hanging around'

‘You gotta move, you gotta move on'

‘We'll give you ten minutes and you better be gone'

‘You gotta move, you gotta move on'

‘Come on, everybody, we’ll follow the sun'

‘You gotta move, you gotta move on'

‘Dum di da .'

‘We gotta move, we gotta move on'

‘Dum di da .'

‘We gotta move, we gotta move on'

‘We gotta move, move, we gotta move on'

‘Da da di da …'
