Lord, I wonder, what's exactly the matter
Uh, child you know the time
It seemed like uh, hours
Everything had changed
But I hold up my head
Lord, I'm trying to make you understand
Lord, you know uh, everybody they tell me
Somebody done hoodoo'd the hoodoo man
Now you know I, I buzzed your bell this morning baby
You had your, elevator running slow
I buzzed your bell little girl
Take me up on the, uh third floor
But, I hold up my head
Lord, I'm trying to make you understand
Lord you know uh, there are tales, that baby
That somebody hoodoo'd the hoodoo man

*Harmonica Playing*

I say uhm, oh
I tell you this time baby and I ain't gonna
Tell you know no more
That next time I tell you I might have to
Uh, let you go
But I hold up my head
Lord i'm trying to make her understand
Lord you know everybody they tell me
Somebody done hoodoo'd the hoodoo man
