Lyrics

Mumbo

[Intro]

Take it, Tony!

[Verse 1]

Well, your love in my mind

My woman, I’m breakin’

And my minds’ gotta take

No wrong doesn’t break ya

[Chorus]

Ooh, when I'm feeling alright

Ooh, when I'm feeling alright

Ooh, when I'm feeling alright

Ooh, when I lose it, alright

[Verse 2]

Well, my mind is in love

My Mumbo will break ya

And our love hasn’t made

The Mumbo will break ya

[Chorus]

Ooh, when I'm feeling alright

Ooh, when I'm feeling alright

I don’t see any number

I don’t see an old lady

(Ah, yeah, yeah)

[Guitar Solo]

[Refrain]

Ooh, I don’t beat a drumplayer

Ooh, but I made alright

Ooh, I am keepin’ a layer

Ooh, come, I made it alright

[Bridge]

'Eah, 'eah, 'eah, 'eah

'Eah, 'eah, 'eah, 'eah

[Refrain]

Ooh, come on, see, I’m a player

Ooh, come on, feel it I play

Ooh, we’re not feeling a play out

Ooh, no one think of a way

[Outro]

Well, lady on my mind, again 'bout to make love

Well, inside of my mind, my love can’t go to maintenance

Ooh, you don’t seem to me

Ooh, you don’t seem to me

Ooh, you don’t seem to me

Well, on my mind, my Mumbo will make you

Well, down in my mind, my Mumbo will break you

Ooh, come on, keep it on playin’

Ooh, you just keep it on playin’

Ooh, you just keep it on, playin’

Ooh, you just beat them all, ah

Ah, your love is a waste

Come, honey let’s make love

Well, my... has been made up

Well, I found my love, I make it

Well
