[Gb] [Ab] Roger, come here Roger, [C]
[Bbm] I brought [Fm] you a gift, the fire blessing that [Bbm] you brought me.
[C] [Fm]
They call me the witch doctor, from a land afar, [C] specializing in opium.
The real [Fm] name is Papa Bois, when the drums begin to play, and I [Bbm] ring the bell.
Everybody [C] clad in blue, and I cast [Fm] him a spell.
Roger, come here Roger, Roger, I brought you a gift, [Bbm]
[Fm] the fire blessing [Bbm] that you brought me.
[C] Oh Lord, it is time to put [Fm] something in the pot.
A little white rat, so much of his fat, I put down on the living bat.
Mud from the grave, he had one black stone.
Stored it up with [Bbm] a dead man bone.
[C] It seemed so fine, every woman going to [Fm] be mine.

[Fm] the very still of night, when folks are asleep, and the [C] devil's angels pipe,
[Fm] making spirits weep, I'll be in the cemetery, with horns [Bbm] on my head,
and a silver cross, [C] and two big, big boney, invoking [Fm] the dead.
Roger, come here Roger, Roger, I brought you a gift, [Bbm] the
[Fm] fire blessing [Bbm] that you brought me.
Oh [C] Lord, it is time to put something [Fm] in the pot.
A little bit of mud, an evil's claw, donkey blood and a rabbit's claw.
One black hen, it's a golden thread, I bring her here [Bbm] from Napoleon Head.
[C] If nothing goes wrong, God's a living tongue to [Fm] calm down.

if you [C] want some Obeah, come to [Fm] Papa Bois quick,
if somebody needs you chicken, or you [Bbm] lose your mind,
come quick, [C] I am quite willing to give [Fm] you a hand.
Roger, Roger, I [Bbm] [Fm] brought you a gift, the fire blessing [Bbm] that you brought me.
Oh [C] Lord, it is time to put something [Fm] in the pot.
A yellow candle, a rusty egg, a car jack, a knife, a pick, a weapon, a silver just for speed,
a sultan head [Bbm] and a junk mail bin.
[Eb] Now who's [C] doing wrong, getting a big, big sore [Fm] foot and tongue.
Roger,
[Bbm] I brought you a [Fm] gift, the fire blessing that you [Bbm] brought me.
