Good interpretion from this Mungo Jerry Song..thank you realy...from an Old Mungo Fan from Germany

[carolbradford]

This guy has got the most incredible voice. I love his number one hit . someone needs to tell him just how good he could be if he sang the right songs.His voice reminds me of the 70s 80s and 90s when music and talent was at its best.

Classic song release by Mungo Jerry in 1971 went to No 13 in the UK charts - the words are valid nowadays as they were then - heck out the correct lyrics and see what I mean

[colinbaker]

Wow. I never expected to find a cover of a Mungo Jerry song, even less one by George Ezra!

[jamesdelavan]

Sounding like Early Tom Waits. Nice job

.the real lyrics, same to mungo jerry version.

When your girlfriend asks you 'round to her house and you meet her folks
And they say that your hair's too long and you're not their kind of bloke
They grab you by the collar and they throw you through the door
You don't have to be in the army to fight in the war

Well, you're working very hard to get promotion in your job
But arrive late on morning just because you missed the bus
The foreman say "you're fired, 'cause you punctuality's poor"
You don't have to be in the army to fight in the war

Then you go into a hotel to get put up for the night
And they say that you can't stay there just because your shirt ain't white
You're tired and you hungry and you cannot walk no more
You don't have to be in the army to fight in the war

Ain't no money, ain't no woman ain't no roof above your head
So you lay down in the park and you wish that you were dead
The fuzz says you are trespassing and kicks you in the jaw
You don't have to be in the army to fight in the war

Y do people like hurting others?

apart from than enjoying hurting others. I aint no slave nor solder. Just love life wherever I go😍🐝🐝🐝🐝🐛🦋. Nature by my side, loving me, they want my power in love but without love there is no access to power. An eye for an eye leaves the world blind. Be kind, fair to all is a requirement of life. Life is for all not some, #earth is a beautiful place. No freedom until we all equal, as life is equal. Do good (helpful, fix) and good will come back, do bad, bad (hurt) will come back to you. Respect or fuck off. No time for hurt, life is for the living. Alive people are happy. You want to heal but all you do is hurt, lies never fly only truth does, def to me anyway. I remember being a happy teridactle, flying for many miles once apon a time🥰. Love bring unity and happiness, dont hurt if you wanna climb that mountain for a good view. Love or nothing at all, Life matters even if not to some. Iq test, stupid test, cos if iq testvwas about smartness there would be no conflict or war so I dought I will pass stupid iq test, lol they just said Im dislexic last time, that is hilarious 🤣 when I not go round acting like a savage animal day and night unless cornered, kicked a copa in the balls, cos 5 of them or so decided to slam me in the concrete after one abused me, nut crack first, can we just not fight, I dont like hurting nor did that cop. respect life is all that matters, dam its cold with hurtful cold people stealing the unawear that cares. Cant steal a free soul, Ill be free one way or another just dont get in my way, take my life, I take yours and Im not silant in afterlife or I wouldnt be here to help so dont mess with life that gave you life unless you want it keep snowing, stop abusing people, everyone equal or mother nature crys with snow, Im just happy with music and being me dead or alive, yous can enjoy your war with or without me but Im not going to war, Im having peece, respect personal space, all criminals shouldnt be allowed to terize the public unless you want to die. Your not getting anything unless you care about life, your war is stupid. Die going to kill others, Ill pass. What is wrong with war people/canibals?, are they just demons? Should I get a crucifix fix out and say back off demon😂 . Cunts tryna make me angry, is my anger, I aint no puppet, am just alive or alive somewhere else. Y so many dont care about life is sad. Its hard having autism but I wouldn't change who I am for anything, Im not a puppet so be an equal or there is nothing for anyone. Can people just be fair so mother nature stop being pissed off and snowing/chucking trees everywhere and flooding and I dont have to stab a cunt being stalked by pedofiles trying get some food. Im living with honer (a very uncommon, unknown word), whether I got cloeths without holes or not. Hek mite even buy a horse cos why not, let the horsies free and stop eating meat and being 🥶. Your cold, you get cold. I dont get sick apart from being abused, I dont recommend being under 18. I care about my life so not get sick others not care about life at all. 😍life🌳 or laters, alpaca style. I gonna alpaca outa here if life stupid with stupid abusive people in the world making it a cold place. Equal is part of life so live life fair😃✨🦥. Whoever doesnt read this Im guising dont care about life, cos happiness and well health is in this message, lol Iq that😅. Ah this song gets my blood boiling in a good way, lets live or lets move on, Im going forward weapon or no weapon, do no harm but take no shit🐡, I deserve life, fuck the racists, or they just gonna freeze to death from there cold loveless selfish hearts or die alone cos lonely people die alone. I always got friends far and near so cheers for this song, its golden. Im not going to fight in a war, war is stupid, solves nothing and they killed a bunch of horses, savages like I want any part in things that desroy life. Ill help if people want help to live healthier but so far others just mostly selfish. 🐛🦋🌈🐝🐝🐝🐝🌳life matters full stop. equality and happiness or cruelty and suffering, choice is yours but Im not going to try hurt people like other savage people do. Raspect or nothing matters that is disrespectful and destructive/dominating.

I don't think the lyrics could be more incorrect..

[IndieRockerHippy]

They say that your hair's too long and you're not that kind of bloke

The foreman says you're

They say that you can't stay there just because your shirt ain't white

The force say that you're

;)

[chistinekamler]

well just look around your outside world then you finding that you know why.

[john]

no more wars, trolling, hate speech..RIP Caroline

[alancutt]

You, ve all beat me to it .whoever wrote this has no idea about the English language

[lugsy]

These lyrics are off in a funny way, it is like you asked an American to try type out what he is singing 😂

[scottnam]

Terrible lyrical translation. Assuming English isn’t your first language I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt.
