The Mojo (01-12-53) - J.B. Lenoir, Lenoir

Been to New Orleans

And I sure had a wonderful time

I been to New Orleans

And I sure had a wonderful time

I was high, high as a Georgia pine

My auntie carried me all down on Rampart Street

Seen everybody I wanted to meet

She said, «J.B., son, stop, look and listen to me

They got somethin' knock you off of your feet»

They got that mojo boogie

The mojo boogie

Got that mojo boogie

Begin to slide on down

I thought she was talkin' about all over in Algiers

Said, «Auntie, please tell me just what did you say?»

They got the Louisiana boogie, all them other kinda things

They even got that thing they call that mojo hand

They got that mojo boogie

The mojo boogie

Got that mojo boogie

Begin to slide on down

I got one jack, sure is crazy

My aunt forgot to teach me just how to operate it

I went to a night club, I was squeezin' it tight

Below I believe that start to fight

Me and this mojo boogie

I had the mojo boogie

Had that mojo boogie

Begin to slide on down
