Voodoo City |
| Paddy came down to Voodoo City |
| Met a lady on Bourbon Street |
| She was dark, she was beautiful |
| Swept that boy right off his feet |
| Runnin' from the man in New York City |
| I fled down south to beat the chill |
| But the Ice Man had me in his sights |
| For one too many unpaid bills |
| Oh oh oh oh voodoo city |
| Oh oh oh oh voodoo world |
| Oh oh oh oh voodoo city |
| For God sakes keep your hands off my voodoo girl |
| Marie Laveau was the lady in question |
| I fell beneath her crescent spell |
| Nights spent drinkin' in the Quarter |
| Soon turned into a living hell |
| She said she knew how to protect me |
| From all the evil in my past |
| But New York is not scorned so easy |
| Iceman tracked me down at last |
| Oh oh oh oh voodoo city |
| Oh oh oh oh voodoo world |
| Oh oh oh oh voodoo city |
| For God sakes keep your hands off my voodoo girl |
| Moonlight on the lazy river |
| Mist around the old gaslight |
| Heard his footsteps on Toulouse Street |
| Disappear into the creole night |
| Candle waver on the altar |
| Marie, she dance on the naked floor |
| Flame light up her sacred body |
| I hear a key turn in the door |
| I scream at her «you have betrayed me» |
| The hurt explodes inside her eyes |
| She throws herself across my body |
| The bullet chokes her voodoo cries |
| A raven rises from her body |
| The Iceman stares in disbelief |
| I crash through her garret window |
| Race like fire down Bourbon Street |
