Somebody Done Hoodooed The Hoodoo Man (03-13-40) |
Hey, clowns, have you dug the latest jive on the surfar? |
No, man! |
Well they got him |
They got who? |
You know, that man that’s been cooking up that jive |
Selling it to these folks 'round town |
Makin 'em have them funny dreams |
You mean the hoodoo man? |
Yeah! |
Oh no, that cat thought he was just too grand! |
Well gay, somebody done hoodoo’d the hoodoo man |
Smack me down with the story gay |
Ol' Joe Hannah from Louisiana |
A hoodoo king in every manner |
But i found out with out a doubt |
The tables had turned on him |
He ain’t got a tooth in his head |
Poor Ol' Joe is almost dead |
Somebody done hoodoo’d the hoodoo man |
10, 10, double 10, 45, 15 |
Joe can’t drink no gin |
Ain’t nothing go over the devil’s back |
That don’t buckle under his chin |
His face looks just like gravel sand |
And everybody’s got Joe on the pan |
Somebody done hoodoo’d the hoodoo man |
Somebody done cooked up some stuff in a pot |
Not too cold and not to hot |
They dropped a few drops in Joe’s beef stew |
Now he’s blowing his top, he don’t know what to do |
They don’t know who did it |
They can’t find out |
But he’s done hoodoo’d his last hoodoo without a doubt |
Somebody done hoodoo’d |
Done hoodoo’d the hoodoo man |
