blue dogs - marie laveaux lyrics

down in louâ’siana where the black trees grow
live a voodoo lady named marie laveaux.
she got a black cat tooth and a mojo bone,
and anyone wouldnâ’t leave her alone.
she go greeeeeeeeeeee…
another man done gone.

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 messinâ’ 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 like you all know,
and he was lookinâ’ around for marie laveaux .
he said, “marie laveaux, you lovely witch,
why donâ’t you gimme a little charm thatâ’ll make me rich.
gimme million dollars, and iâ’ll tell you what iâ’ll do…
this very night iâ’m gonna marry you.”
itâ’ll be ummmmmmmm…
another man done gone.

so marie done some magic and she shook a little sand,
made a million dollars, and she put it in his hand.
then she giggled and she wiggled and she said, “hey hey,
iâ’m gettinâ’ ready for my wedding day.”
but olâ’ handsome jack said “goo-bye marie.
you too d-mn ugly for a man like me.”
so marie started shakinâ’, her fangs started gnashinâ’,
her body started shakinâ’, and her eyes started flashinâ’.
she went greeeeeeeeeeee…
another man done gone.

so if you ever get down where the black tree grow
and meet a voodoo lady named marie laveaux,
and if she ever asks you to make her your wife,
man, you better stay with her for the rest of your life
or itâ’ll be greeeeeeeeeeee…
another man done gone.
