Testo Louisiana Song

(Pat Green)

I took me a river boat from Memphis and I rode to New Orleans.
Met up with a little cayenne mamma.
She said she'd like to be my Delta queen,
She said there's one thing I forgot to tell you,
Yeah there's one thing you should know.
She said my mamma was a voodoo princess And my heart beats black like coal.

Well she made up some black magic gumbo and some voodoo etoufe'
She said once you taste my cookin boy
It's gonna steal your heart away,
She said there's one more thing I forgot to tell you
Yeah there's one thing that you should know,
She said once you taste my baby's cookin',
It's gonna turn your heart black like coal.

Now she took me on a little walk down the bayou,
On a lovers rendezvous.
She said take my hand little Cajun man
Gonna do the thing lovers do,
Now there's one thing I forgot to tell you, Yeah there's one thing you should know,
She said ohh-oooh-oooh-oh ohhh mmmm-mmmm-mm-mm-mmmm,

Now this ain't hardly no story,
Yeah it's barely even worth the tell,
But you ramble around in a delta town,
You're sure to lose yourself,
And there's one thing I forgot to tell you,
Yeah there's one thing I forgot to tell you.
I said now don't you go messin' with no voodoo mamma,
She'll take you straight to hell.
