Hoodoo Lady Lyrics by Memphis Minnie

Hoodoo Lady (1933-1937)

1991

Hoodoo lady, how do you do?
They tell me you take a boot
And turn it to a brand new shoe
But don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Cause I'm going back to Tennessee
Hoodoo lady, you can turn water to wine
I been wondering where have you been all this time
I'm setting here broke, and I ain't got a dime
You ought to put something in these dukes of mine
But don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Cause I'm going back to Tennessee
Hoodoo lady, I want you to unlock my door
So I can get in and get all my clothes
But don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Cause I'm going back to Tennessee
Now look-a here, hoodoo lady, I want you to treat me right
Bring my man back home but don't let him stay all night
And don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Cause I'm going back to Tennessee
Why look here, hoodoo lady, I'm your friend
When you leave this time, come back again
But don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Don't put that thing on me
Cause I'm going back to Tennessee
