[F] [Ebm]
[Bb]
[Eb] I studied evil, I can't deny [Ebm] it, Won the hoodoo charm, call it love [Bb] me or die.
Something a nail, a piece of [Bb] her dress, Apocryphal devil, hideous.
[Ebm] I will relate, the piteous consequence, My mistake, all enslaved to passing [Bb] desire,
Making these dreaded love [Ebm] me or die.
[B]
[Ebm] [Bb]
[Bbm] [Bb] [Bm]
[Bb] [Eb] Against a jungle [Ebm] primeval [Bb] green, She had the [Gbm] looks of [Bb] a beauty queen,
No bangles or chain wearing broken shoe, Seventy-five cent bottle [Ebm] per view.
I said good morning, I tipped my hat, All while I was cunning like [Bb] a rat,
Smiling gaily looked her in the eye, I [Bb] felt in my pocket the love [Eb] me or [Bbm] die.
[Ebm]
[Bb]
[Bb] [Ebm] [A] I [Ebm] parted history, one to behold, I studied magic [Bb] from days of old,
Membership secret society, Power and wealth in my family.
But Mathilda, darling, why you don't take my wedding ring,
Like a demon under the floor, Marry the hoodoo down [Ebm] the back door.
[Bb]
[Ebm] Word broke through the town, [Gb] That a [Eb] fever [Gbm] strike [Bb] Mathilda down,
Night or day the [B] doctors [Bb] arrive, Priests come running [Eb] quarter to five,
[Bbm] Standing in the weeds early next day, I saw the [Gb] meat wagon rolling away,
I see Mathilda laying in the back, Her old mother wearing a [Ebm] suit or bag.
[Eb]
[B] [Bb]
[Abm]
[Eb] On the trumpet and bang the drum, I wait [D] for me judgment to come,
I know her spirit is down beneath, I hear the weeping and gnashing of the teeth,
Flames of hell leech [Bb] at my feet, In the shadow [Eb] of the jungle I feel the heat,
Mathilda's waiting in hell for me [A] too, All cause she died from a bad hoodoo.
