Mungo Jerry Lyrics - Rob's Mungo Jerry Collection

Daddie's Brew (Colin Earl)

Back home in the hills where the streams run good

Stood my old Daddies still, all hidden in the wood

He never did care for strangers hangin' round

So he gave 'em a drink and they just fell to the ground

He never would tell hat was in that brew

He just grinned to himself in a strange kind of way

An' said "You call it Daddies Brew"

The revenue mane came round one day

He said "ah'm going get your Daddie to pay"

"Come in son" said my Daddie to the man

And gave him a drink from that special can

Well, the man's bugged out and his face turned green

]He ran screemin' through the door in a awful state

And since then he ain't been seen

Chorus:

Daddies brew, ooh ooh ooh, it makes you want to holler like a hog

It makes you feel you got wings an' all kind of funny things

An' let me tell you, that ain't all

Well, you've heard of white lightening, and mountain dew

But to feel good all night, You stick to my Daddies Brew

A drinkin' man came round to our shack, and he said

An now listen people this is good,

He said "Ah'm goin' to drink your pappie under the table

You know he really thought he could

Weel, Daddie gave him some, and he coughed and he spluttered

And his false teeth they fell out on our rug

Well Daddie just said that he didn't much like his manners

An' he should leave if he couldn't hold his jug

Chorus:

Daddies brew, ooh ooh ooh, it makes you want to holler like a hog

It makes yoy feel you got wings an' all kind of funny things

An' let me tell you, that ain't all

Well, you've heard of white lightening, and mountain dew

But to feel good all night, You stick to my Daddies Brew

Dance Rave Medley (Ray Dorset)

INTRO Dance Rave Theme 1

In The Summertime

In the summertime when the weather is high

You can stretch right up and touch the sky

When the weather's right, you've got women

You've got women on your mind

Have a drink have a drive, go out and see what you can find.

If her Daddy's rich take her out for a meal

If her Daddy's poor just do what you feel

Speed along the lane, do a ton, or a ton and twenty five

When the sun goes down, you can make it,

Make it good in a lay-by.

Lady Rose

On the dark nights by the firelight

I see her face before my eyes

Lady Rose, oh Lady Rose

Oh Lady, my Rose my Lady Rose

Demon (Ray Dorset)

There's been a whole lot of trouble in the place where I've been

it's bothered the king and it's upset the queen the knaves have been playing with the princesses' maids

the jester's been running 'round the courtyard again

Chorus:

And I've been cryin', someone's lying I'm relying on my mind

I'm not forgiven', I've stopped living there's a demon and it's got to be stopped

because it's got everyone on the run.

The owls are all hootin' and no one can sleep

the shepherds are worrying 'cause they're loosin' their sheep the soldiers are marching with their steel sticks of war

people are runnin' they can't take no more

Chorus

The icebox is steaming, the oven is cold the moon has turned yellow

the sun's turned to stone the windmill's stopped turning

the flowers won't grow the taps have stopped running

and the clocks have gone slow

Chorus

The icebox is steaming, the oven is cold the moon has turned yellow

the sun's turned to stone the windmill's stopped turning

the flowers won't grow the taps have stopped running

and the clocks have gone slow

Chorus

Dock On The Bay (Redding - Cropper)

Sittin' in the morning sun
I'll be sittin' when the evening comes
Watching the ships roll in
And I'll watch them roll away again
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wasting time, yeah

I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the Frisco bay, yeah
'Cause I have nothing to live for
Look like nothing's gonna come my way
So I've just to sit on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Just wasting time, hey, hey, yeah yeah…

Oh…It looks like nothing's gonna change
Yes everything remains the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
I guess I'll remain the same, yeah

Sittin' here resting my bones
This loneliness won't leave me alone
It's two thousand miles I roam
Just to make this dock my home

So I've just to sit on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Just wasting time, ah wasting time…

Don't Let Go (Ray Dorset)

Do you remember back in sixty nine

You've had your problems since then I've had mine

But now the time is comin' round again

to get together like we did back then

An' don't let go

Clean up the car an' take it to the beach

Those pretty girls there aint so out of reach

All the kids are surfin' in the sun

Just grab a girl out there an' have some fun

An' don't let go

Laughin' jokin' runnin' wild

Dancin' with your angel child

Drinkin' smokin' drivin' fast

Who knows how long this will last

Never mind about these faded jeans

Just remember that you were sixteen

An' later on you make it into town

All go crazy when the sun goes down

An' don't let go

Don't Stop (Ray Dorset)

Well I'm shakin' all over an' I don't know why

You're drivin' me crazy I'm as high as a kite

CHORUS

Don't stop, don't stop

Baby don't stop, don't stop don;t stop

Baby don't stop, don't stop

Whenever we meet I get a feelin' inside

It makes me nervous but I'm feelin' alright

CHORUS

Your hands are so soft and your breath so cool

Your lips are so sweet and your skin is so smooth

Your eyes hypnotise me whenever you're here

I lose all control so don't tell me

Dragster Queen (Ray Doset)

Well she took my car burned it on down the strip
Took my car burned it on down the strip
Don't care about nothin' just ups and lets it rip

Well she likes hard livin' lets her hair hang down
She likes hard livin' lets her hair hang down
Don't care about nothin' fastest girl in town
CHORUS
She's a dragster dragster dragster queen
Dragster dragster dragster queen.........
Well she gives me lovin' loves me like a sex machine

Well she took my car burned it on down the strip
Took my car burned it on down the strip
Don't care about nothin' just ups and lets it rip

Well she likes hard livin' lets her hair hang down
She likes hard livin' lets her hair hang down
Don't care about nothin' fastest girl in town
CHORUS

Duke Street Stomp (Ray Dorset)

Down on Duke Street, people are singing there

Every night and day

Well the guys are drinking, girls are easy

And the folks all have their way

What they gonna do when the morning comes

No ones gonna work they say

But who wants to work in the afternoon

We ran stay drunk all day

Down on Duke Street, people are dancing

Talking having fun

Sitting on the sidewalk passing a bottle

And lying in the sun

There's a man with a happy dog

And a lady on his arm

Black an' white shoes an' a wide brimmed hat

Light suit and gold lucky charm

There's a girl with a short, short dress

Red lips, dark hair, dark eyes

She'll talk, be sweet, she'll sell her charm

To any paying guy

Dust My Broom (James Elmore)

I'm gettin' up soon in the mornin'

I'm gonna write a letter, telephone every town I know
If I don't find her in mississippi

I don't want no woman
Who wants every downtown man she meets
I don't want no woman
Who wants every downtown man she meets
Man cause no good darlin'
They shouldn't lie her on the street yeah

I believe, I believe my time ain't long
I believe, I believe my time ain't long

Dust Pneumonia Blues (Woody Guthrie)

I got that dust pneumony, pneumony in my lung,
I got the dust pneumony, pneumony in my lung,
An' I'm a-gonna sing this dust pneumony song.

I went to the doctor, and the doctor, said, "My son,"
I went to the doctor, and the doctor, said, "My son,
You got that dust pneumony an' you ain't got long, not long."

Now there ought to be some yodelin' in this song;
Yeah, there ought to be some yodelin' in this song;
But I can't yodel for the rattlin' in my lung.

My good gal sings the dust pneumony blues,
My good gal sings the dust pneumony blues,
She loves me 'cause she's got the dust pneumony, too.

It it wasn't for choppin' my hoe would turn to rust,
If it wasn't for choppin' my hoe would turn to rust,
I can't find a woman in this black ol' Texas dust.

Down in Oklahoma, the wind blows mighty strong,
Down in Oklahoma, the wind blows mighty strong,
If you want to get a mama, just sing a California song.

Down in Texas, my gal fainted in the rain,
Down in Texas, my gal fainted in the rain,
I throwed a bucket o' dirt in her face just to bring her back again.
