Voodoo Ties
Almost ran away one time to Nashville, Tennessee
Los Angeles, California, even the big old NYC
That ain't right
You know the nest ain't no place for me
Well my body lies here in Texas
But my Heart's stuck in New Orleans
Last night I was sipping on tequila
When I crossed paths with a bad señorita
Had to double take she was looking so clean
She was a black magic woman I could tell by all means
It only took one glance to put the magic in me
Got me hooked on the needle so effortlessly
She blew me away how she sat in them jeans
I was standing there stiff, it was almost obscene
And then she turned around and she gave me a wink
I asked her where she come from, she said New Orleans
I don't know much about Nola
And she don't know shit about me
Must be something in the water
'Cause the city got it's hold on me
That ain't right
You know my heart's stuck in New Orleans
Must be something funny with Voodoo out there
'Cause she cast her spell on me
Well I called up the Devil
I said "Let me make a request"
"Son you better listen very well
I can help you on your quest"
But that ain't right
You know the Devil played a little trick on me
Oh you know he made me the best
But ain't nobody wanna listen to me
The city done did you dirty
Now you're stuck in New Orleans
But your heart's out in Texas
And it just can't take the heat
And that's alright
You went and did the same damn thing to me
Oh the city done did you wrong
Ain't ever stepping foot back in New Orleans
Los Angeles, California, even the big old NYC
That ain't right
You know the nest ain't no place for me
Well my body lies here in Texas
But my Heart's stuck in New Orleans
Last night I was sipping on tequila
When I crossed paths with a bad señorita
Had to double take she was looking so clean
She was a black magic woman I could tell by all means
It only took one glance to put the magic in me
Got me hooked on the needle so effortlessly
She blew me away how she sat in them jeans
I was standing there stiff, it was almost obscene
And then she turned around and she gave me a wink
I asked her where she come from, she said New Orleans
I don't know much about Nola
And she don't know shit about me
Must be something in the water
'Cause the city got it's hold on me
That ain't right
You know my heart's stuck in New Orleans
Must be something funny with Voodoo out there
'Cause she cast her spell on me
Well I called up the Devil
I said "Let me make a request"
"Son you better listen very well
I can help you on your quest"
But that ain't right
You know the Devil played a little trick on me
Oh you know he made me the best
But ain't nobody wanna listen to me
The city done did you dirty
Now you're stuck in New Orleans
But your heart's out in Texas
And it just can't take the heat
And that's alright
You went and did the same damn thing to me
Oh the city done did you wrong
Ain't ever stepping foot back in New Orleans
