[Eb] I studied evil, I can't deny, What a hoodoo chump [Bb] called it, love me or die.
To drink a nail, a piece of her dress, The pocketary [Eb] devil he has.
I will relate the hideous consequence, [Bb] My mistake, fall a slave to passion's desire,
Making [D] it ready, love [Bb] me or die.
[Ebm] [Bb]
[B] [Fm]
[Bb] I'll catch a [Ebm] jungle primeval dream, She had the looks of a beauty queen,
No bangles or chain wearing broken, Seventy-five cent [Ebm] bottled purdue.
I said good morning, I tipped my [Eb] hat, All the while I [Bb] was cunning like a rat,
Smiling gaily looked her in the eye, I felt in my pocket the [Ebm] love me or die.
[Gb] [Bbm]
[Fm]
[Ebm] I passed history, one to behold, I studied [Bb] magic from day to morn,
Membership secret society, I had wealth in [Eb] my family,
But Matilda, darling, why you don't [Bb] take my wedding ring?
Like a demon under the floor, Buried a hoodoo [Eb] down the back [Ebm] door.

[Eb] All word broke through the town, As a fever [Gb] strike Matilda down,
Nine thirty, little girl [Bb] around, Three come running [Ebm] quarter to five,
Standing in the wind early next day, I saw the meat [Bb] wagon rolling [Fm] away,
I seen Matilda laid in the bank, Her old mother wearing [B] into the black.

[Ebm] the [Bbm] trumpet and [Eb] on the drum, I wait [Bb] for the judgment to come,
I know the spirit is down beneath, I hear it weeping and [B] gnashing of the teeth,
Flame of [G] hell leaks at my feet, [Eb] The shadow of the [Bb] jungle I feel the heat,
Matilda waiting in hell for me too, All for she died for me bad hoodoo.
