[INTRO]
[C]
[VERSE 1]
[C]Way down in Lou'siana where the black trees grow
Lives a vo[C]odoo lady named Marie Laveau
She's got a bl[F]ack cat tooth, a mojo bone
And an[C]yone wouldn't leave her alone
She'd go [G]AAAHHHHHHHH [N.C.]another man done [C]gone
[VERSE 2]
Well she li[C]ved in a swamp in a hollow log
She had a o[C]ne eyed snake and a two legged dog
A t[F]hin bony body and stringy hair
And i[C]f she'd ever catch you messin' round there
She'd go [G]AAAHHHHHHHH [N.C.]another man done go[C]ne
[BRIDGE]
And t[F]hen one night when the moon was black
I[C]nto the swamp came ol' Handsome Jack
A [D]no good feller like you don't know
and he was lo[G]okin' [N.C.]around for M[G]arie[N.C.] Lavaux
[VERSE 3]
He said Ma[C]rie Laveau, why you lovely bitch
G[C]imme a little charm that'll make me rich
G[F]imme a million dollars and I'll tell you what I'll do
[C]This very night I'm gonna marry you
(Whew) Look o[G]ut [N.C.]another man done g[C]one
[BRIDGE]
So Mar[F]ie done some magic, she shook a little sand
She ma[C]de a million dollars and she stuck it in his hand
She gi[D]ggled and she wiggled and she said hey hey,
[G]I'm [N.C.]gettin' ready for my [G] [N.C.]wedding day
[VERSE 4]
But ol' Han[C]dsome Jack, he said "Good-bye Marie
You[C]'re too dang ugly for a rich man like me"
Ma[F]rie started mumblin', her fangs started dancin'
Her b[C]ody started tremblin' and her eyes started flashin'
She went [G]AAAHHHHHHH a[N.C.]nother man done go[C]ne
[VERSE 5]
If you e[C]ver get down where the black trees grow
You see that v[C]oodoo lady named Marie Laveau
[F]If she asks you to make her your wife
Boy you b[C]etter stay with that woman for the rest of your life
Or it'll be A[G]AAHHHHHHHH a[N.C.]nother man done g[C]one
[OUTRO]
[C] [Em] [C]
