EN
Down in the swamp they're gathering tonight Voodoo boats in the pale moonlight Um-a-pa palesu-va um-a-pa palesu-va um-a-pa palesu-va Voice of the bayous voice of the bayous Voodoo queen's a waitin' waitin' all alone Waitin' on my man to claim him on her throne Um-a-pa palesu-va... Voodoo queen is tryin' tryin' for my man Made herself a potion gonna get him if she can Um-a-pa palesu-va... But I make myself a dart and stick it full of pins And when the moon is dark as blood her troubles will begin Um-a-pa palesu-va...
