When shadows fill the sky
And evil`s all around
Don`t call a preacher
A different creature
Bring the hoodoo down.
Beside a sacred fire
That´s where he will be found.
Somewhere in Haiti
Baron Samedi
Bring the hoodoo down.
It`s a river of blood
And a river of tears.
It`s a river of love.
I know you`ll die to see
That zombie jamboree.
The dead will tango
Until the mambo
Bring the hoodoo down.
We`re gonna learn to dance
And fall into a trance,
And picking cotton
Will be forgotten
Bring the hoodoo down.
