"Voodoo Woman" lyrics
"Voodoo Woman"
(originally by Koko Taylor)
Oh they call me the voodoo woman
Oh I know the reason why
Oh they call me the voodoo woman
Oh I know the reason why
Well if I raise up my hand darlin'
Don't you know the sky begin to cry
Oh cry
Oh they call me the voodoo woman
I look through water and I spy dry land
Oh they call me the voodoo woman
I look through water and I spy dry land
And I'm gonna tell all you men up there
If your woman's got another man
You better hope she doesn't got any
'Cause
I got a rabbit foot in my pocket, a toad frog in my shoes
A craw fish on my shoulder, lookin' right dead at you
I got dust from a rattlesnake and a black spider bone
If that don't do it baby, you'd better leave it all alone
They call me the voodoo woman
Oh I know the reason why
Well if I raise up my hand now
Don't you know the sky begin to cry
Oh cry
Oh I got a rabbit foot in my pocket, a toad frog in my shoes
A crow fish on my shoulder, lookin' right dead at you
I got dust from a rattlesnake, and a black spider bone
If that don't do it baby, you'd better leave it all alone
They call me the voodoo woman
And I know the reason why
Well if I raise up my hand now
Don't you know the sky begin to cry
Oh cry
They call me the voodoo woman
Oh I know the reason why
Oh they call me the voodoo woman
Oh I know the reason why
Well if I raise up my hand
Don't you know the sky begin to cry
Oh cry

Keb' Mo' - "She Just Wants To Dance" When the music starts to playin'
She slides out on the floor
Dancing without a partner
Swaying on the two and four
There's a rhythm in her footsteps
And a flower in her hair
A smile on her face...

as that of the rain-soaked purple

Natalie Merchant - "Where I Go" Climbing under
A barbed wire fence
By the railroad ties
Climbing over
The old stone wall
I'm bound for the riverside
Well, I go over to the river
To soothe my mind
To ponder over
The crazy days...
