[A] [C#m] [A]
[G] [F#]
[A] Down in Louisiana where the [C#] black [A] trees grow,
Little voodoo lady named Marie Laveau
Got [D] a black cat tooth and a mojo [A]
[D] bone
[A] Anyone who wouldn't leave her alone, she'd [E] go
[A] And another man done gone
She [C#] [A]
lived in a swamp in a hollow log
With a one-eyed snake and a three [Em]-legged [A] dog
[D] Bent bony body and strange hair
[A] And if she ever seen y'all messin' [E] around there, she'd go
And [C] another man [A] done gone
[D] Then one night when the moon was black
[A] Into the swamp came Hanson Jack
[B] An old good man like you all know
[E] Looking [A] around for Marie Laveau
He said, Marie Laveau, why you lovely witch
Give me a little charm, I'll make me rich
[D] Give me a million dollars, I'll tell you what I'll do
[A] This very night I'm gonna marry you
And it'll [E] be, oh
Another man [A] done gone
So [D] Marie done some magic, shook a little sand
[A] Made a million dollars and she put it in his hand
[B] She jiggled and she wiggled and she said, hey, hey
I'm getting [G#] ready for my wedding day
[A] But old Hanson Jack said, goodbye, Marie
You're too damn ugly for a rich man like [D] me
Marie started mumbling, her fangs started gnashing
Her [A] body started trembling and her eyes [Em] started flashing
[F#m] She went, [E] another man [C#m] done gone
[A] So if you ever get down where the black trees grow
And meet a [D] voodoo lady named Marie Laveau
If she ever asks [Am] you to make her your wife
Man, you better [C#m] stay with her for the rest of your life
Or it'll be, another man done gone
[A] [G] [F#m] [A]
