"Lujon" (also known as "Slow Hot Wind") is a musical piece by Henry Mancini. Its name comes from the lujon percussion instrument heard on the recording. It appeared on his 1961 album Mr. Lucky Goes Latin, but was an original piece of music that had nothing to do with the Mr. Lucky television program. It was included in the soundtracks for the films The Big Lebowski, Sexy Beast, W.E., and Two Lovers. Mancini would later record a jazz/swing version of "Slow Hot Wind" and include it on his 1975 album Symphonic Soul. The song would eventually reach the #38 spot on the Adult Contemporary list in 1976.
His gaze
Swept over me now
A slow hot wind
Some days
It's too warm to fight
A slow hot wind
There in the shade
Like a cool drink waiting
She sat with slow fire in her eyes
Just waiting
Some days
It's too warm to fight
A slow hot wind
A slow hot wind
A slow hot slow hot wind
There in the shade
Like a cool drink waiting
She sat with slow fire in her eyes
Just waiting
Some days
It's too warm to fight
A slow hot wind
A slow hot wind
A slow hot wind
A slow hot
Wind
