Hoodoo Lady

Columbia Original Masters: The
Hoodoo Lady - Memphis Minnie
Hoodoo lady how do you do
They tell me you take a boot
And turn it to a brand new shoe
But don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
'Cause I'm going back to Tennessee
Hoodoo lady you can turn water to wine
I been wondering where have you been all this time
I'm setting here broke and I ain't got a dime
You ought to put something in these dukes of mine
But don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
'Cause I'm going back to Tennessee
Boy you better watch it 'cause she's tricky
Hoodoo lady I want you to unlock my door
So I can get in and get all my clothes
But don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
'Cause I'm going back to Tennessee
Now look-a here hoodoo lady
I want you to treat me right
Bring my man back home
But don't let him stay all night
And don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
'Cause I'm going back to Tennessee
Boy she's tricky as she can be Better watch her too
Why look-a here hoodoo lady I'm your friend
When you leave this time come back again
But don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
'Cause I'm going back to Tennessee
Boys I'm scared of her
