Her hair was in tangles, her mind a little weak
But her intuition was unique
Black cats and potions, her affinity
Needless to say it, but she frigtened me
Chorus:
She's a voodoo queen, that voodoo queen
Way down in New Orleans it's such a spooky scene
She's a voodoo queen, that voodoo queen
Please stop this ride and let me off
Proceed with caution screamed the voice inside my head
But with sick fascination I swallowed back my dread
Her bony finger beckoned with a flashy toothless grin
I wondered if her message was heaven-sent or sin
(Chorus)
I don't want to know what you have to say
Pretty please, I'm begging you, please just go away
Can't you see I'm frightened and fragile and fried
I just need to run away and hide
Her hand was on my shoulder, she looked deep into my
eyes
My fear and panic, they slowly did subside
Can I get a cigarette? she tirely exclaimed
My relief was overwhleming, my life forever changed
She's a voodoo queen, that voodoo queen
Way down in New Orleans it's such a spooky scene
She's a voodoo queen, that voodoo queen
With a rum and Coke or three, she seemed to me to be
A voodoo queen, that voodoo queen
Thought she had the second sight, but all she wanted
was a light
