[Intro] [beatbox kick and snare pattern starts] [Chorus] [male baritone vocals] You a voodoo child, she a voodoo lady Took your daddy by the hand she made him crazy You a voodoo child, she a voodoo lady Spoiled your daddy's mind now his whole world hazy [Verse 1] Don't you know that lady? Your daddy met your mama on a hot and heavy night She had magic in her fingers, had moonlight in her eyes He said, "Lady let me take you, let me take you out to dance" She just smiled across her shoulder, said, "Boy you ain't got no chance" No chance to dance, couldn't charm her with his plans Bought a jacket, bought some flowers, went out and bought some pants And every time she told him no, he'd come begging for a chance Little did your daddy know she had magic in her hands Curl a finger magic, flip a hair magic Something magic in her voice, one look he hooked Daddy had no chance [Chorus] You a voodoo child, she a voodoo lady Took your daddy by the hand and made him crazy You a voodoo child, she a voodoo lady Spoiled your daddy's mind now his whole world crazy Wrapped him 'round her finger, make him make her a baby Voodoo child, you a voodoo lady Come and get your child now [Bridge] [beatbox continues] You a voodoo child, voodoo lady Here she come [Verse 2] First he bought her flowers, she said, "Flowers ain't my thing" Then he bought a box of candy, she said, "Boy, go buy me a diamond ring" Took her dancing Friday, she disappeared by ten Daddy swore he learned his lesson, Saturday he back again No chance still dance, so showed up in them pants Everybody tell him, "Man, that woman got you entranced" Daddy laughed and shook his head, "Nah, nah, baby it's romance" Little did your daddy know he dancing in her hands Curl a finger magic, flip a hair magic Something magic in her voice, one look he hooked Daddy had no chance [Chorus] You a voodoo child, she a voodoo lady Took your daddy hand and she made him crazy You a voodoo child, she a voodoo lady Spoiled your daddy's mind now you made him crazy Wrapped him 'round her finger, she made him make her a baby You a voodoo child from a voodoo lady Voodoo child from a voodoo lady Who your daddy? Your baby daddy Caught by a voodoo lady [Outro] Now here the part your daddy never figured out at all He thought he chasing mama but she playing him hard Though he won her with his dancing, thought he won her with his charm But she picked that fool already, she was reeling him along She a voodoo child, you a voodoo lady Took him by the hand and she made him crazy You a voodoo child, she a voodoo lady Spoiled your daddy mind now he whole world crazy Finger magic, hair magic, honey in her voice She a voodoo child from a voodoo lady Took your daddy by the hand and made him crazy You a voodoo child from a voodoo lady Spoiled your daddy mind now he whole world crazy That's you child, you the baby She made you baby Voodoo child from a voodoo lady
