Marie Laveau

C C Way down in Lou'siana where the black trees grow C Lives a voodoo lady named Marie Laveau F She's got a black cat tooth, a mojo bone C And anyone wouldn't leave her alone G N.C. C She'd go AAAHHHHHHHH another man done gone C Well she lived in a swamp in a hollow log C She had a one eyed snake and a two legged dog F A thin bony body and stringy hair C And if she'd ever catch you messin' round there G N.C. C She'd go AAAHHHHHHHH another man done gone F And then one night when the moon was black C Into the swamp came ol' Handsome Jack D A no good feller like you don't know G N.C. G N.C. and he was lookin' around for Marie Lavaux C He said Marie Laveau, why you lovely bitch C Gimme a little charm that'll make me rich F Gimme a million dollars and I'll tell you what I'll do C This very night I'm gonna marry you G N.C. C (Whew) Look out another man done gone F So Marie done some magic, she shook a little sand C She made a million dollars and she stuck it in his hand D She giggled and she wiggled and she said hey hey, G N.C. G N.C. I'm gettin' ready for my wedding day C But ol' Handsome Jack, he said "Good-bye Marie C You're too dang ugly for a rich man like me" F Marie started mumblin', her fangs started dancin' C Her body started tremblin' and her eyes started flashin' G N.C. C She went AAAHHHHHHH another man done gone C If you ever get down where the black trees grow C You see that voodoo lady named Marie Laveau F If she asks you to make her your wife C Boy you better stay with that woman for the rest of your life G N.C. C Or it'll be AAAHHHHHHHH another man done gone C Em C
