Topic: "The Mighty Mojo" a Mother's Day song from a Pug

I have been racking my brains for a Mother's Day song idea . . . nothing seemed very promising until I realized that my wife's Pug would be the perfect voice for a song.  Like most Pug owners, my wife is bonkers for her dog - and the dog is likewise totally devoted to her.

So . . . . Happy Mother's Day, y'all . . .

The Mighty MojoJames McCormick, May 19, 2008


For Mother's Day


I [Em]am the Pug called Mojo, I [C]am so very tough


My [A]heart belongs to Mommy, my [C]mistress my true [B7]love


She [Em]knows I am so handsome, she [G]understands my needs


Her [A]lap is my royal throne, yeah [C]Mommy belongs to [B7]me


So [G]if you mess with Mommy, you're [Em]messing 'round with me


Don't [C]make me have to demonstrate my [D]ferocity


I [G]am the might ruler of [Em]all that I survey


I [C]am the Mighty Mojo, the [D]Pug must be obeyed . . . [D7]



I [Em]am the Pub called Mojo, I [G]am so very sweet


I'm [A]absolutely precious, [C]perfect and com-[B7]plete


My [Em]Mommy she takes care of me, I [G]keep her safe from harm


I [A]woo her with my macho [C]Puggy wits and [B7]charms


So [G]if you mess with Mommy, you're [Em]messing around with me


Don't [C]make me have to demonstrate my [D]ferocity


I [G]am the mighty ruler of [Em]all that I survey


I [C]am the Mighty Mojo, the [D]Pug must be o-[G]beyed

HI James,

I particuarly like the chord sequence in this one and the lyrics are great.

The typo at the start of the second verse definitely adds to the song so please do not correct it lol

Re: "The Mighty Mojo" a Mother's Day song from a Pug

lol The smaller the dog the bigger the bark!

Like all dogs to me adorable. From the scruffiest to the most elegant, love them all.
My own dog Ben had a wee scrap the other evening with a 9 month old "Alaskan Malamute" new dog to my neighbour.

Got a tad envious of me making a fuss of this beautiful creature..

Good song as always James.

Thanks Roger & Old Doll!
This wee song has made for much Mother's Day jubilation in our household.

"The Mighty Mojo" has now extended his empire to my 'Songs for Human and Autoharp' page on MyPace Music.

The mighty Mojo,

If only people could love and greet us with such wild abandon. Ah give me the Nature of the beast.

Love the picture James and the song.

Re: "The Mighty Mojo" a Mother's Day song from a Pug

Thanks, daddycool!  Our Pug Mojo is smallest dog of 6, but since he is Mommy's most favorite he gets away with behavior that would get a larger dog (like our 2 English Mastiffs or our Great Dane) into big trouble.  I don't think the dog will ever replace me - I just wish I could get away with the sort of stuff this little dog is able to pull.

Old Doll, please realize we do not dress up our dogs . . . I found that photo using a Google Image search, and it was just the perfect image to go along with the song.  However, if I were dress up Mojo he would be perfectly attired in a Speedo with lots of gold chains.
