Mother always saidKeep away from herWhen she goes by the dogs all cry, but cats all purrShe's the Voodoo QueenUp from New OrleansHere she comes now lookin' like the universe was all hersVoodoo Queen MarieShe ran the town of New OrleansRan it since her middle teens, like her favorite toyWell that's just fine becauseThat was just exactly what it wasThere ain't nobody, ain't no laws made to fit Queen MarieHas she got the power?Don't the men all stare?Golden hoops and rainbow clothes, long black shiny hairHangin' to her hipsCherry coloured lipsOther women walk on the earth but this one sails through the airFolks tell fabulous liesThey say that green light shines from her eyesSay that she's a cat in disguise, say there's horns on her headSay she's married as wellThey say she wed the devil in hellLetras de cancionesTurned him into a big black snake and keeps him under her bedWatch that woman shakeShe's dancin' with her snakeDancin', dancin' all night long on the moon-lit, candle-lit voodoo lakeDressed in flamin' redDancin' with the deadDancin' all night long with a red fish tail over her headThe voodoos know her nameThey pass the tail from hand to handYou could go all through this land and never hear a word saidBut if you know where to lookIt won't be found in anyone's bookBut the voodoos know and say Queen Marie's not dead From Letras Mania
