Lady Cobra

The Speakeasis Swing Band

Night has come, it's harvest Moon
Time for me to prepare
I sense the Loa world's been disturbed
Their will is up in the air

Being priestess of the ritual
It's a serious thing
To avoid the lurking danger
I need a prayer to sing
Ah

Oh, sing it loud and sing it clear, oh Lord, now
So the spirits can hear
Oh, sing it loud and sing it clear, oh Lord, now
So the spirits can hear

Time has stopped, and darkness falls
In the ceremony
Stock-still men with haunted eyes
Keep on looking at me

Suddenly a booming voice
Singing comes to my ears oh
As I turn I see Lord Cobra
His face was palе with fear

Oh, sing it loud and sing it clear, oh Lord, now
So the spirits can hеar
Oh, sing it loud and sing it clear, oh Lord, now
So the spirits can hear

Ghastly shadows by the fire
Dancing in ecstasy
Eerie sounds, all through the night
Make a strange melody

To appease the world of spirits
I must keep singing and pray
Until the finish of the ritual
Until the break of the day
Ah

Oh, sing it loud and sing it clear, oh Lord, now
So the spirits can hear
Oh, sing it loud and sing it clear, oh Lord, now
So the spirits can hear
