The Hoodooin' Of Miss Fannie Deberry |
| The Hoodooin' Of Miss Fannie Deberry |
| Down in Sunflower County where I was born |
| Used to be a crazy woman |
| Used to walk bare footed down a gravel road |
| Singin' in an unknown tongue |
| One day I asked her Papa why she was crazy |
| The tears welled up in his eyes |
| He said, «the Devil’s inside my poor baby |
| She be crazy 'til the day she dies |
| You know she’s been hoodooed |
| By the power of the voodoo |
| You know she’s been hoodooed |
| By the power of the voodoo |
| Said Fanny always was a peculiar child |
| Never could make her mind |
| She used to slip out and go walkin' in the woods late at night |
| Always came home cryin' |
| But then one night she came home laughin' |
| Talkin' out of her head |
| She said, Now I ain’t got to worry 'bout dyin' Papa |
| I been sleepin' in a Devil’s bed |
| You know she’s been hoodooed |
| By the power of the voodoo |
| You know she’s been hoodooed |
| By the power of the voodoo |
| Hoodoo woman pickin up Qwewee |
| Hoodoo woman pickin up Qwewee |
| Said «Fanny's Mama was a Voodoo Queen |
| Died when Fanny was born |
| He remembered her very last words to him |
| She said, «'m goin' Honey, take care of Fanny 'til the Devil comes |
| So if you see her buried down in a graveyard |
| Diggin' in a grave for Foofoo |
| You know she’s gonna Hoodoo somebody |
| And if you cross her she might Hoodoo you |
| You know she’s been hoodooed |
| By the power of the voodoo |
| You know she’s been hoodooed |
| By the power of the voodoo |
| Don’t be messin' with a hoodoo woman |
| She’s gonna Hoodoo you |
| Don’t be messin' with a hoodoo woman |
| She’s gonna Hoodoo you |
| Don’t be messin' with a hoodoo woman |
| She’s gonna Hoodoo you |
| Hoodoo woman Pickin up a Qwewee |
| Hoodoo woman Pickin up a Qwewee |
