[Intro]

[Verse 1]
CWay down in Lou'siana where the black trees grow
Lives a voCodoo lady named Marie Laveau
She's got a blFack cat tooth, a mojo bone
And anCyone wouldn't leave her alone
She'd go GAAAHHHHHHHH N.C.another man done Cgone
[Verse 2]
Well she liCved in a swamp in a hollow log
She had a oCne eyed snake and a two legged dog
A tFhin bony body and stringy hair
And iCf she'd ever catch you messin' round there
She'd go GAAAHHHHHHHH N.C.another man done goCne
[Bridge]
And tFhen one night when the moon was black
ICnto the swamp came ol' Handsome Jack
A Dno good feller like you don't know
and he was loGokin' N.C.around for MGarieN.C. Lavaux
[Verse 3]
He said MaCrie Laveau, why you lovely bitch
GCimme a little charm that'll make me rich
GFimme a million dollars and I'll tell you what I'll do
CThis very night I'm gonna marry you
(Whew) Look oGut N.C.another man done gCone
[Bridge]
So MarFie done some magic, she shook a little sand
She maCde a million dollars and she stuck it in his hand
She giDggled and she wiggled and she said hey hey,
GI'm N.C.gettin' ready for my G N.C.wedding day
[Verse 4]
But ol' HanCdsome Jack, he said "Good-bye Marie
YouC're too dang ugly for a rich man like me"
MaFrie started mumblin', her fangs started dancin'
Her bCody started tremblin' and her eyes started flashin'
She went GAAAHHHHHHH aN.C.nother man done goCne
[Verse 5]
If you eCver get down where the black trees grow
You see that vCoodoo lady named Marie Laveau
FIf she asks you to make her your wife
Boy you bCetter stay with that woman for the rest of your life
Or it'll be AGAAHHHHHHHH aN.C.nother man done gCone
