Marie Laveau

Down in Lou´siana where the black trees grow Lives a voodoo lady named Marie Laveaux. She got a black cat tooth and a mojo bone, And anyone wouldn´t leave her alone. She go GREEEEEEEEEEEE... Another man done gone. She live in a swamp in a hollow log With a one-eyed snake and a three-legged dog. She got a bent bony body and stringy hair, And if she ever seen you messin´ round there, She go GREEEEEEEEEEEE... Another man done gone. And then one night when the moon was black, Into the swamp came Handsome Jack. A no-good man like you all know, And he was lookin´ around for Marie Laveaux . He said, 'Marie Laveau, you lovely witch, Why don´t you gimme a little charm that´ll make me rich. Gimme million dollars, and I´ll tell you what I´ll do... This very night I´m gonna marry you.' It´ll be UMMMMMMMM... Another man done gone. So Marie did some magic and she shook a little sand, Made a million dollars, and she put it in his hand. Then she looked and she said , 'Hey hey, I´m gettin´ ready for my wedding day.' But ol´ Handsome Jack said 'Good-bye Marie. You too damn ugly for a man like me.' So Marie started shakin´, her fangs started gnashin´, Her body started shakin´, and her eyes started flashin´. She went GREEEEEEEEEEEE... Another man done gone. So if you ever get down where the black tree grow And meet a voodoo lady named Marie Laveaux, And if she ever asks you to make her your wife, Man, you better stay with her for the rest of your life Or it´ll be GREEEEEEEEEEEE... Another man done gone.
