Who's that hound dog, lean and poor?
Sniffing and howling around your kitchen door?
Won't you throw me a bone, honey?
Don't be cruel
I'm a bad dog, baby, but I ain't no fool
I'm the man with the monkey hand
I'm your mojo man
I got magic tricks to turn your head around
I can fly like a bat and burrow underground
I got the monkey finger and the velvet tongue
I can make you holler, get your motor running,
I'm the man with the monkey hand
I'm your mojo man…
I can make the lame to walk and the blind to see,
make the girls go crazy,
set the prisoner free,
turn your water to whisky,
turn your luck around,
run all the rats and roaches out of town, mojo man…
Now all your flying bullets,
they don't worry me,
because I'm way too fast, lord, I'm slippery
I got secret powers you ain't never saw
I'm a low night flyer, I'm below the law
I'm the man with the monkey hand, I'm your mojo man.
