I got my mojo working 

I got my mojo working — a war cry of successful Blues Singers who win the crowd for which they are playing through their musical mastery and charismatic stage presence. If you are ever playing your heart out and women start throwing their panties your stage YOU GOT YOUR MOJO WORKING.

This phrase entered the mainstream through the song I Got My Mojo Working written by Preston “Red” Foster. This song was first performed by Ann Cole but made famous by Muddy Waters.

The word “mojo” is a reference to sympathetic magic used to bend reality to bless or to curse an individual. Musical mastery is one of the most powerful mojos and it can be augmented through the use of roots, amulets, and spell pouches provided by a Root Woman who you have pleased and who favors you.

Mess around and find out.
Lyrics from the song: I Got My Mojo Working

“I got my mojo working, it just don't work on you.
I got my mojo working, but it just don't work on you.
Look out baby,
Gonna circle the blues..”
