Down in Lou'siana where the black trees grow live
a voodoo lady named Marie Lavaux She got a black
cat tooth and a mojo bone and anyone wouldn't
leave her alone She go GREEEEEEEEEEEE another man

She live in a swamp in a hollow log with a one
eyed snake and a three legged dog She got a bent
bony body and stringy hair and if she ever seen
you messin' round there She go GREEEEEEEEEEEE
another man done gone
And then one night when the moon was black into
the swamp came Handsome Jack A no good man that
you all know and he was lookin' around for Marie
Lavaux
He said Marie Lavaux you lovely witch why don't
you gimme a little charm gonna make me rich He
said now gimme million dollars and I'll tell you

So Marie did some magic and she shook a little
sand, she made a million dollars and she put it in
his hand Then she giggled and she wiggled and she
said hey hey, I'm gettin' ready for my wedding day
But ol' Handsome Jack, he said "Good-bye
Marie, you too d*** ugly for a rich man like

started shakin', her body started turnin', she
started quakin' She said GREEEEEEEEEEEE another
