Marie
Laveau
recorded by
Bobby Bare
written by Shel Silverstein and Baxtor Taylor
G
Down
in Louisiana where the black trees grow
Lives
a voodoo lady named Marie Laveau
C
Got a
black cat's tooth and a Mojo bone
G
And
anyone who wouldn't leave her alone
C D7
G
She'd
go (growl) another man done gone
She
lives in a swamp in a hollow log
With a
one-eyed snake and a three-legged dog
C
She's
got a bent bony body and stringy hair
G
If she
ever seen y'all messing around there
C D7
G
She'd
go (growl) another man done gone
C
And
then one night when the moon was black
G
Into
the swamp come handsome Jack
A7
A no
good man like you all know
D7
He was
looking around for Marie Laveau
G
He
said Marie Laveau you lovely witch
Gimme
a little a little charm that'll make me rich
C
G
Gimme
a million dollars and I tell you what I'll do
This
very night I'm gonna marry you
C
D7
G
Then
it'll be (growl) another man done gone
C
So
Marie done some magic and she shook a little sand
G
Made a
million dollars and she put it in his hand
A7
Then
she giggled and she wiggled and she said hey hey
D7
I'm
getting ready for my wedding day
G
But
old handsome Jack he said goodbye Marie
You're
too damned ugly for a rich man like me
C
G
Then
Marie started mumbling her fangs started gnashing
Her
body started trembling and her eyes started flashing
C
D7
G
And
she went (growl) another man done gone
C
So if
you ever git down where the black trees grow
G
And
meet a voodoo lady named Marie Laveau
C
If she
ever asks you to make her your wife
G
Man
you better stay with her for the rest of your life
C
D7
G
Or
it'll be (growl) another man done gone
