Somebody Tryin’ to Hoodoo Me

I seen Marie by the railroad tracks
Trying to burn a candle behind my back
Create a big confusion
Whole lots of illusion
Try to keep me wondering just where I'm at

I think somebody's tryin' to Hoodoo me
Somebody tryin' to Hoodoo me

Burn the candle every night and day
Ever since I gone and slipped away
Trying to gain me back in some ugly kinda way
I don't know what else I can say
Except somebody tryin' to Hoodoo me

Somebody tryin' to Hoodoo me
Somebody tryin' to Hoodoo me
Somebody tryin' to Hoodoo me

She take a dead rabbit and she burn the frog
Stuff them down in the holler of a handy log
Things got heavy I had to roll across
Three days I was traveling, and my eyes were getting crossed

Somebody tryin' to Hoodoo me
Somebody tryin' to Hoodoo me
Somebody tryin' to Hoodoo me
Somebody tryin' to Hoodoo me

Standing up on the levee all night
Burning black candles, and she never burn white
Got a whole lotta hatred in her heart, and you know that ain't right
That I'm the one to suffer for things not going right

I think somebody tryin' to Hoodoo me
Somebody tryin' to Hoodoo me
Somebody tryin' to Hoodoo me
Somebody tryin' to Hoodoo me
