Mr. Jones
I was born in a city
Down the river Mississippi
With Jesus by my side
I am a voodoo child
Oh, yeah, Mr. Jones
Mr. Jones, you came back to take my bones
Mr. Jones, you turn my heart to stone
I was born in a city
Down the river Mississippi
With Jesus by my side
I am a devil voodoo child
No, no, no, no, no
Neva go down on my knees
Mr. Jones, I never prayed for release
Mr. Jones, you came back to take my bones
Mr. Jones, you turn my heart to stone
Hey, Joe, you look so fine
But never forget one day you're mine
Your soul belongs to me
Down in hell you're forever free
Never pray for salvation
One day you will rock the nation
With the devil by your side
Now you are my voodoo child
No, no, no, no, no
Neva go down on my knees
Mr. Jones, I never prayed for release
Mr. Jones, you came back to take my bones
Mr. Jones, you turn my heart to stone
Mr. Jones, sold my soul to make my bones
Mr. Jones, before the devil turned my heart to stone
You! You destroyed my life
You! You're comin' like a knife
Now! Your soul belongs to me
Now! I'll never set you free
You never prayed for salvation
One day you'll work the nation
Down the river Mississippi
With Jesus by my side
I am a voodoo child
Oh, yeah, Mr. Jones
Mr. Jones, you came back to take my bones
Mr. Jones, you turn my heart to stone
I was born in a city
Down the river Mississippi
With Jesus by my side
I am a devil voodoo child
No, no, no, no, no
Neva go down on my knees
Mr. Jones, I never prayed for release
Mr. Jones, you came back to take my bones
Mr. Jones, you turn my heart to stone
Hey, Joe, you look so fine
But never forget one day you're mine
Your soul belongs to me
Down in hell you're forever free
Never pray for salvation
One day you will rock the nation
With the devil by your side
Now you are my voodoo child
No, no, no, no, no
Neva go down on my knees
Mr. Jones, I never prayed for release
Mr. Jones, you came back to take my bones
Mr. Jones, you turn my heart to stone
Mr. Jones, sold my soul to make my bones
Mr. Jones, before the devil turned my heart to stone
You! You destroyed my life
You! You're comin' like a knife
Now! Your soul belongs to me
Now! I'll never set you free
You never prayed for salvation
One day you'll work the nation
