THE WITCH QUEEN OF NEW ORLEANS
Redbone
CHORUS)
Marie, Marie
La voodoo veau
She'll put a spell on you
Marie, Marie
La voodoo veau
She'll put a spell on you
Marie, Marie
La voodoo veau
She's the witch queen, oh
Of New Orleans (2x)
I'm gonna tell you a story
Strange as it now seems
Of zombie voodoo gris gris
And the witch queen of New Orleans
She lived in a world of magic
possessed by the devil's skew
From a shack near the swamplands
Made of mud and brick
Marie stirred the witches brew
(CHORUS)
Dime or a nickel anyone could buy
Voodoo of any kind
She had potions and lotions
herb And tanna leaves
guaranteed to blow your mind
Early one morning into mucky swamp dew
vanished Marie with hate in her eyes
Though she'll never return
All the Cajuns know
A witch queen never dies
