Mungo Jerry Movin On Lyrics

Movin On Lyrics

Got up this morning, got an aching head,

Been sleepin' on the floor cause
there's people in my bed,

I've been sleepin', sleepin' on the floor it's
so sad,

Think I'll pack up my belongings and get myself another new
pad



The sun is getting hot, burning on my back,

Wonder what
I'm doing still searching for a flat,

I should be swimming, swimming in
the deep blue sea,

Getting plenty of fresh air instead of working in a
factory



Well I took my guitar and some bread and some clothes,

And I started off down the road,

Kept walking all day until the sun
went down,

Yeah, deep down, melting and sinking into the ground,

The watery sky, the tears in its' eye, as it sank through the clouds and
began to die



Got down to the coast, before the morning tide,

Done one hundred miles and it only took three rides,

I'm so happy just
a sitting here by the sea,

The only thing I'm missing is some female
company



Rolling in the sand, having lots of fun,

Watching
all the ladies just lazing in the sun,

Well I got one and she had two
good friends as well,

Gonna buy a bottle of gin and get them as drunk as
hell



Sitting on the beach drinking round by the fire,

I
played the guitar and sang a tune,

Everybody's happy just a dancing
around,

Dancing around, fooling around, the blood in their veins
beginning to pound,

Pounding away, the night into day, the morning
appears warming the ground



Sleeping on the beach and the fuzz come
along,

They said "You move, You gotta move on",

"You can't stay here
just drinking that beer",

"You gotta move You gotta move on",

"Come
on everybody stop a hanging around",

"You gotta move You gotta move
on"

"We'll give You ten minutes and you better be gone",-
