Well, I told my woman, to stop bein' so fa'
Told my ba', "Stop bein' so fast.
You go out runnin' around here, get a mojo hand on you
Baby, don't run 'round here with these mojo hands
'Cause I know this town must [this] hoodoo [can]
Don't bring your mens around me
They don't think about a thing but the hoodoo man
Don't bring your men around me, but that mojo done
I don't like no hoodoo, I don't want it 'round here at all
I don't want no hoodoo hangin' 'round me at all
'Cause I'm scared, I'm scared that mojo [done] be [God]
Well, my daddy, my daddy, he was a hoodoo man
My daddy, my daddy, you know, was a hoodoo man
He could tell you anything, darlin', anything you want to know
But now he's gone on, this ain't no hoodoo no more
Says, he's gone on here, ain't no hoodoo no more
