[C] xxx
[VERSE 1]
[C]Wayx down in Lou'siana where the black trees grow
Lives a vo[C]odoox lady named Marie Laveau
She's got a bl[F]ackx cat tooth, a mojo bone
And an[C]yonex wouldn't leave her alone
She'd go[G] AAAHHHHHHHHx [N.C.] another man done [C] gonex
[VERSE 2]
Well she li[C]vedx in a swamp in a hollow log
She had a o[C]nex eyed snake and a two legged dog
A t[F]hinx bony body and stringy hair
And i[C]fxx she'd ever catch you messin' round there
She'd go[G] AAAHHHHHHHHx [N.C.] another man done go[C]nex
[BRIDGE]
And t[F]henx one night when the moon was black
I[C]ntox the swamp came ol' Handsome Jack
A[D] nox good feller like you don't know
and he was lo[G]okin'x [N.C.] around for M [G] ariex [N.C.] Lavaux
[VERSE 3]
He said Ma[C]riex Laveau, why you lovely bitch
G[C]immex a little charm that'll make me rich
G[F]immex a million dollars and I'll tell you what I'll do
[C]Thisx very night I'm gonna marry you
(Whew) Look o[G]utx [N.C.] another man done g[C]onex
[BRIDGE]
So Mar[F]iex done some magic, she shook a little sand
She ma[C]dex a million dollars and she stuck it in his hand
She gi[D]ggledx and she wiggled and she said hey hey,
[G]I'mx [N.C.] gettin' ready for my [G] xxx [N.C.] wedding day
[VERSE 4]
But ol' Han[C]dsomex Jack, he said "Good-bye Marie
You[C]'rex too dang ugly for a rich man like me"
Ma[F]riex started mumblin', her fangs started dancin'
Her b[C]odyx started tremblin' and her eyes started flashin'
She went[G] AAAHHHHHHHx a[N.C.]nother man done go[C]nex
[VERSE 5]
If you e[C]verx get down where the black trees grow
You see that v[C]oodoox lady named Marie Laveau
[F]Ifx she asks you to make her your wife
Boy you b[C]etterx stay with that woman for the rest of your life
Or it'll be A[G]AAHHHHHHHHx a[N.C.]nother man done g [C] onex
