: mentions a wagon. But I just can't
: determine what he is singing. I am
: guessing he is referring to a hearse, but
: it sounds like he is singing 'moon wagon'
: or maybe a 'move wagon'. Can someone tell
: me exactly what he is singing? Is it an
: American slang term which I am unfamiliar
: with as I am from the UK? I have given
: below some lyrics to two songs where it is
: mentioned.

: worried yeah, worried every where I go.
: ?????????? mama, worried every where I go.
: I worried my ??????????? so late last night,
: she had a ????? wagon backed up to my
: door.

: In the song 'Begin back' he sings: Got to
: get
: that biscuit out the rich man's hand.
