Halloween is coming… Let’s Jam!!!

So I mentioned New Orleans yesterday which lead me to today’s song….

Song #11 Redbone – The Witch Queen Of New Orleans

Lyrics

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 ah, of New Orleans
Of New Orleans

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 swampland
With a mud-pie brick
Marie stirred her witch’s brew

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 ah, of New Orleans
Of New Orleans

Dime or a nickel any one could buy
Voodoo of any kind
She had potions and lotions, herbs and tanna leaves
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Early one mornin’ into mucky swamp dew
Vanished Marie with hate in her eye
Though she’ll never return all the Cajuns knew
A witch queen never die

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 ah, of New Orleans
Of New Orleans
