Royal Crown Revue - Mugzy's Move lyrics

(Mando Dorame/Eddie Nichols)

Arranged by Eddie Nichols and Mando Dorame

Mugzy's in the mood for losing cat

He's gonna beat it downtown to where it's at

Hocks his axe for some cash and a mess of blues

When sickness drowns his fear

The line becomes unclear

Well, just one more black day

How great is his need

A flowering bad seed

Well he's dying from his thirst cut off from all ties

Then he'll realize

He's gonna drown

In that hat full of rain

With a heart full of pain

And how can you live with a hat full of rain?

And a soul full of pain

How great is his need

A flowering bad seed

Well he's dying from his thirst

Cut off from all ties

Then he'll realize

He's gonna drown

In that hat full of rain

With a heart full of pain

And how can you live with a hat full of rain?

And a soul full of pain
