Don’t You Throw That Mojo on Me (Live)

Lyrics

[Intro] Ray Benson Asleep At the Wheel got my name from the song "Route 66" Flagstaff, Arizona Don't forget Winona And uh, don't forget Wynonna So mom and I traveled, um, when I was a teenager to Austin, Texas And we got to hang out with uh, Asleep At the Wheel as well as the fabulous Thunderbirds And I actually got to sit and watch Jimmie and Stevie Ray Vaughan play guitar And it was then, that I was hooked on the blues and uh Yeah, I like it funky too This is about somebody tryna put the mojo on you I call it that when people try to categorize me or tell me who I am Don't you put that mojo on me, you hear me? Don't look at me with that tone of voice [Verse 1] Wеll, you go where you want to Go out on the town Expеct to keep me waitin' With that law you're layin' down That ain't right Tonight I'm breaking free, yes, I am I ain't gonna work no more Don't you throw that mojo on me [Verse 2] You got some magic I'll give you that It just ain't worth it I ain't going back no more Under your lock and your key Haha, I know that look Don't you throw that mojo on me Ah [Instrumental Break] [Interlude] Oh This is Randy Flowers, girls Ain't he cute? [Verse 3] You ain't gonna be my hangman I ain't gonna wear no noose Well, I got somethin' here now, baby I'll be turnin' loose You ain't the only one, ha I've got some tricks up my sleeve, yes, indeed Well, it might come back to haunt you Don't you throw that mojo on me Yeah, it might come back to haunt you Don't you throw that mojo on me [Outro] That's right I'm gonna start singing more of the blues So, as the story goes I decided on this tour, after twenty years, I mean, you wake up one day and you realize I'm okay I'm okay It's time to, uh, celebrate what I am Instead of worrying about what I'm not And it's not in arrogance, it's confidence from nothing that, uh When you turn forty, tonight I'm thirty-ten You have the right, so I wanna rock
