She blessed all dirty water
On a stormy full moon night
She walked through sand and fire
Never caught in a fightHe got that rattlesnake fever
Red dust on his boots
Demons and fallen angels
Got the black spider bluesMama was a hoodoo woman
Papa was a hoodoo man
Mama was a hoodoo woman
Papa, was a hoodoo manShe's drivin' hard that Chevy trail
Burnin' on both ends
She rocks the town of New Orleans
With her gypsy blendA mean shoot-down in Ed's Saloon
Spirits join the sky
The undertaker said, "I'll never forget
The day, the whole town cried"Mama was a hoodoo woman
Papa was a hoodoo man
Mama was a hoodoo woman
Papa, was a hoodoo manA mean shoot-down in Ed's Saloon
Spirits join the sky
The undertaker said, "I'll never forget
The day, the whole town cried"Mama was a hoodoo woman
Papa was a hoodoo man
Mama was a hoodoo woman
Papa, was a hoodoo manMama was a hoodoo woman
Papa was a hoodoo man
Mama was a crazy woman
Papa, was a hoodoo man
