Witch Queen Of New Orleans

(album: Close Up - 1972)

Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau, she'll put a spell on you-ou
Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau, she'll put a spell on you
Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau
She's the witch queen (ahhhh) of New Orlea-eans
Of New Orlea-eans
I'm gonna tell you a story, strange as it now see-eems
Of zombie, voodoo, gris gris, and the Witch Queen of New Orleans
She lived in a world of magic, possessed by the devils skew-ew
From a shack near the swamplands, made of mud-pile brick
Marie stirred her witches brew-ew
Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau, she'll put a spell on you-ou
Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau, she'll put a spell on you
Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau
She's the Witch Queen (ahhhh) of New Orlea-eans
Of New Orlea-eans
I'm gonna tell you a story, strange as it now see-eems

Of zombie, voodoo, gris gris, and the Witch Queen of New Orleans
She lived in a world of magic, possessed by the devils skew-ew
From a shack near the swamplands, made of mud-pile brick
Marie stirred her witches brew-ew
Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau, she'll put a spell on you-ou
Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau, she'll put a spell on you
Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau
She's the Witch Queen (ahhhh) of New Orlea-eans
Of New Orlea-eans
Dime or a nickel anyone could buy-uy, voodoo of any ki-ind
She had potions and lotions, herbs and tanna leaves
Guaranteed to blow your mi-ind
Early one morning into mucky swamp dew
Vanished Marie with hate in her eye-eyes
Though she'll never return, all the Cajuns knew-ew
A Witch Queen never die-ie-ies
Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau, she'll put a spell on you-ou
Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau, she'll put a spell on you
