[00:08.05] I studied evil,
[00:10.06] I can't deny,
[00:12.38] Was a hoodoo charm called a Love Me or Die,
[00:17.14] Some fingernail, a piece of her dress,
[00:21.30] Apocathery, Devil's behes'
[00:27.34] I will relate, the piteous consequence my mistake,
[00:34.32] Fallin slave to passin desire,
[00:38.58] Makin' the dreaded Love me or Die.
[00:46.82]
[01:01.11] Against a Jungle primeval green,
[01:05.15] She had the looks of a beauty queen
[01:09.09] No bangles or chain, wearin' broken shoe
[01:13.19] Seventy-five cent bottle perfume.
[01:17.09] I said, "Good mornin", I tipped my hat,
[01:21.07] All the while I was cunning like a rat,
[01:25.05] Smilin gaily, looked her in the eye,
[01:28.62] I felt in pocket, the Love me or Die
[01:34.46]
[01:50.26] My past history, one to behold,
[01:54.00] I studied magic from days of old,
[01:57.34] Membership, secret societies,
[02:01.16] Power and wealth in my family
[02:04.59] But Matilda, Darling,
[02:08.73] Why you don't take my wedding ring,
[02:12.02] Like a demon under the floor,
[02:15.12] I buried the hoodoo down the back door.
[02:20.49]
[02:35.05] Lawd, word broke through the town,
[02:39.00] That a fever strike Matilda down,
[02:42.31] Nine thirty, the doctor arrive,
[02:46.51] Priest come runnin, quarter to five.
[02:50.04] Standin in the weeds early next day,
[02:54.02] I saw the meat wagon rollin away,
[02:57.87] I seen Matilda layin in the back,
[03:01.18] Her old mother wearin a suit of black
[03:09.47]
[03:22.25] Sound the trumpet, and bang the drum,
[03:26.05] I wait for me judgement to come,
[03:29.59] I know her spirit is down beneath,
[03:32.99] I hear the weepin and gnashing of the teeth.
[03:36.85] Flames of Hell licks at my feet,
[03:40.01] In the shadow of the Jungle I feel the heat,
[03:43.77] Matilda's waiting in Hell for me too,
[03:47.03] All cause she died from a bad hoodoo.
