Lyrics Marie Laveau

Down in Louisiana where the black trees grow

Lives a voodoo lady named Marie Laveau

Got a black cat's tooth and a Mojo bone

And anyone who wouldn't leave her alone

She'd go ah another man done gone

She lives in a swamp in a hollow log

With a one-eyed snake and a three-legged dog

She's got a bent bony body and stringy hair

And if she ever seen y'all messing round there

She'd go ah another man done gone

And then one night when the moon was black

Into the swamp came a handsome Jack

A no good man like you all know

Looking around for Marie Laveau

He said Marie Laveau ah you lovely witch

Give me a little charm that'll make me rich

Give me a million dollars and I tell you what I'll do

This very night

I'm gonna marry you

Then it'll be huh another man done gone

So Marie done some magic and shook a little sand

Made a million dollars and she put it in his hand

Then she giggled and she wiggled and she said hey hey

I'm getting ready for my wedding day

But old handsome Jack said goodbye Marie

You're too damned ugly for a rich man like me

Then Marie started mumbling her fangs started gnashing

Her body started trembling and her eyes started flashing

And she went ah another man done gone

So if you ever get down where the black trees grow

And meet a voodoo lady named Marie Laveau

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 ah another man done gone

Hey

Marie

Hey hey

Marie
