Voodoo Lady (f. Phillip-Michael Scales) Songtext
von Mike Maimone

We were trying to get away
From that mean Midwestern gray
So I took my girl to New Orleans, yeah
We ate everything in sight
About to call it a night
When we passed a tarot spot on the street

So she walks in
I go to get some gin
The next thing that I know
She′s on the next flight home
And it was Spirit

What did that voodoo lady say to you?
What did she see in the cards?
What did that voodoo lady say to you?
That made you break my heart


We were looking for some fun
Bound to catch the rising sun
Up all night on Frenchman Street, yeah
My man he caught sight of a neon sign
Said he'd be back in a beat

That morning, without warning
I woke up alone
He took the red eye home
Yeah, it was Spirit

What did that voodoo lady say to you?
What did she see in the cards?
What did that voodoo lady say to you?
That made you break my heart

Hey man, what are you drinkin′ about?
You wouldn't believe me
Try me
I came here with my girl
Oh yeah
She went to get her tarot read
And all of a sudden she leaves me
Gets on an airplane and flies back home


Wait, what?
My man came down here with me
He saw a tarot card reader last night
I woke up and he was just gone
No
Yeah

Hey, was it across the street?
Yeah, it was that one across the street
Right over there
Across the street?
Across the street

Man, I say we finish this whiskey
Yeah, I'm on it
And we go over there
And give ′em a piece of our minds
Oh, I′m gonna give 'em a piece of somethin′

What did that voodoo lady say to you?
What did she see in the cards?
What did that voodoo lady say to you?
That made you break my heart

What did that voodoo lady say to you?
That made you break my heart
