Bobby Bare - Marie Leveau lyrics

Down in Louisiana where the swamp gra** grows Lives a voodoo lady named Marie Leveau She got a black cat tooth and a mojo bone And anyone wouldn't leave her alone She go (greeeeeee) another man done gone. She lives in a swamp in a hollow log With a one eyed snake and a three legged dog She got a bent bony body and stringy hair And if she ever seen you all messin' round there She go (greeeeeee) 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 When he was lookin' around for Marie Leveau. He said Marie Leveau you lovely witch Gimme little charm that'll make me rich Gimme million dollars and I tell you what I'll do This very night I'm gonna marry you And it'll be ummmmmmm 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 hands Then she giggled and she wiggled and she said, hey, hey I'm gettin' ready for my weddin' day. But ol' Handsome Jack he said goodbye Marie You're too damn ugly for a rich man like me Then Marie started numblin' her fangs started gnashin' Her body started tremblin' and her eyes started flashin' And she went (greeeeeee) another man done gone. So if you ever get down where the swamp gra** grow And meet a voodoo lady named Marie Leveau 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 (oheeeeeee) another man done gone...
