Lyrics Harry Nilsson

Harry Nilsson

Mucho Mungo/Mt. Elga

Mucho Mungo, sweet thing

Sweetest little thing I've ever seen

Must have been a sweet dream

Brought you here

Brought you through the sorrow and the tears.

C'est la, c'est la, c'est la vie

Sail upon the ocean, sail with me

Sail into tomorrow every day

Looking for the sunshine through the haze.

But wait, what's this?

I see, could it be?

Mount Elga, Mount Elga, a high mountain

I climb as I'm dreaming ah-ah

Mount Elga, Mount Elga, a high mountain

I climb as I'm dreaming, catchin me hell.

To climb this hill

The more I try to climb

I'm slipping still.

Me body run down

Me feeling weak

The more I try to climb up

This mountain peak.

Mucho Mungo, sweet thing

Sweetest little thing since sweet sixteen.

C'est la, c'est la, c'est la vie

Sail across the ocean, sail with me.
