Witch Queen Of New Orleans - Redbone

GroOviEs present:
THE WITCH QUEEN OF NEW ORLEANS
- Lyric -
Marie
Marie
la
voodoo veau
she'll put a spell on you.
Marie
Marie
la
voodoo veau
she'll put a spell on you.
Marie
Marie
la
voodoo veau
she's the witch-queen oh
of New Orleans
of New Orleans.
I'm gonna tell you a story
strange as it now seems
of zombie voodoo gris gris
and the witch-queen of New Orleans.
She lived in a magic possessed
by the devils skew
from a shack near the swamp lands
made of mud be brick.
Marie stirred her witches brew.
Marie
Marie...
Dime or a nickel anyone could buy
voodoo of any kind
she had potions and lotions herb
and tanna leaves guaranteed to blow your mind
early one mornin' into mucky swamp
dew vanished Marie with hate in her eyes
tho' she'll never return all the cajuns knew
a witch-queen never dies.

This song never gets old! Actual instruments are being played, Imagine that?!

[@marmas58ink]

This song occasionally still comes drifting into mind...
but I'd forgotten it was them that did it. I like some of those wild phrases.
"early one mornin' into mucky swamp dew, vanished Marie with hate in her eyes..."

I grew up in new orleans - and man o' man - thought I was fierce when this song came on.

One of the Hippest bands around! That Indian beat (so familiar to Native Orleanians with strong Indian roots) was the coolest of cool.

[@terrydecker1502]

Yes! Like your description Nola.

[@247hdjazz]

The inspiration for my "Boogie Woogie Woman"!!

[@Jonotheboss]

Just a correction to the first verse, its she lived in a world of magic :) nothing big though so its no worries!

[@supermandisco]

Just off my CCR kick, now on to this.

[@NateThurlow]

Last week Redbone performed downtown along with The Black Eyed Peas at Los Angeles' first official "Indigenous Peoples Day 2018"...the politically correct replacement for Columbus Day
