Marie Lavaux - Bobby Bare (Bobby Bare)

Down in Louisiana

Where the black trees grow

Lives a voodoo lady named Marie Laveau

Got a black cat's tooth and a Mojo bone

And anyone who wouldn't leave her alone

She'd go another man done gone

She lives in a swamp in a hollow log

With a one-eyed snake and

A three-legged dog

She's got a bent bony body and stringy hair

If she ever seen y'all messin' round there

She'd go another man done gone

And then one night

When the moon was black

Into the swamp come handsome Jack

A no good man like you all know

Lookin' around for Marie Laveau

He said Marie Laveau you lovely witch

Gimme a little charm

That'll make me rich

Gimme a million dollars

And I tell you what I'll do

This very night

I'm gonna marry you

Then It'll be another

Man done gone

So Marie done some magic

And she shook a little sand

Made a million dollars and

She put it in his hand

Then she giggled and she wiggled

And she said Hey Hey

I'm gettin' ready for my weddin' day

But old handsome Jack

He said goodbye Marie

You're too damned ugly

For a rich man like me

Then Marie started mumblin'

Her fangs started gnashin'

Her body started tremblin'

And her eyes started flashin'

And she went

Another man done gone

So if you ever git down

Where the black trees grow

And meet a voodoo lady

Named Marie Laveau

If she ever asks you to

Make her your wife

Man you better stay with

Her for the rest of your life

Or it'll be another man done gone
