Down in the swamp they're gathering tonight
Voodoo boats in the pale moonlight
Um-a-pa palesu-va um-a-pa palesu-va um-a-pa palesu-va
Voice of the bayous voice of the bayous
Voodoo queen's a waitin' waitin' all alone
Waitin' on my man to claim him on her throne
Um-a-pa palesu-va...
Voodoo queen is tryin' tryin' for my man
Made herself a potion gonna get him if she can
Um-a-pa palesu-va...
But I make myself a dart and stick it full of pins
And when the moon is dark as blood her troubles will begin
Um-a-pa palesu-va...
