Black Cat Bone

(álbum: The Brightest Light - 2013)

When you get to my age the candles cost more than the cake
It's not the white powder anymore that's keeping me awake
I'd make a pact with the devil if I could be 21 again
I've been riding the blinds on this runaway train
I can feel my Juju working I've got my black cat bone

I asked you once for water but you gave me gasoline
You dropped oil in my lap and the you lit the kerosene
I conjured my mojo but it don't shield me from your spell
I got the black snake moan and I've been there and back to hell
I can feel my Juju working I've got my black cat bone

Going down to the crossroads there's a deal I have to make
It's just before midnight and my ashes haul to ache
I've got the graveyard dirt on the sole of my shoe
I ain't your monkey man but I guess I'll have to do
I can feel my Juju working I've got my black cat bone

Atibon Legba, open the gate for me
