Lyrics

Full moon risin’, wrapped in it’s dark embrace
I can hear her whisperin’ cryptic words
Like incantations fill the space
Fog on the water, drifting through the night
The smell of mud, crickets chirp
I’ve lost my will to fight

The teacher and the preacher want me to stay away
The black-cat warns the price I’m gonna pay
Alligator’s swamp the secrets that it keeps
They’re just beyond my reach

They say, don’t go down to the Louisiana bayou
That green-eyed girl will steal your soul away
Her witchy ways, voodoo spells
Has pulled many a good boy in
And they never been heard from again

Beads as a front-door, a lamp hangs on a post
Her raven hair, flowing dress
I swear that I’ve seen a ghost
Gator’s warnin’, bullfrog sings a song
Her crystal-ball lets me know
That I don’t have long

Saw her silhouette dancin’ in the moonlight
Dark-water fog, was blurin’ my sight
The kerosene lamp beside her old shack
Her pull I couldn’t turn back

They say, don’t go down to the Louisiana bayou
That green-eyed girl will steal your soul away
Her witchy ways, voodoo spells
Has pulled many a good boy in
And they never been heard from again

The teacher and the preacher want me to stay away
The black-cat warns the price I’m gonna pay
Alligator’s swamp the secrets that it keeps
They’re just beyond my reach

They say, don’t go down to the Louisiana bayou
That green-eyed girl will steal your soul away
Her witchy ways, voodoo spells
Has pulled many a good boy in
And they never been heard from again

They say, don’t go down to the Louisiana bayou
That green-eyed girl will steal your soul away
Her witchy ways, voodoo spells
Has pulled many a good boy in
And they never been heard from again
