love me or die - shawn james & the shapeshifters lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i studied evil, i can’t deny
was a hoodoo charm called a love me or die
some fingernail, a piece of her dress
apocathery, devil’s behes’
i will relate, the piteous consequence of my mistake
falling slave to p-ssing desire
making the dreaded love me or die

[verse 2]
under a jungle primeval green
she had the looks of a beauty queen
no bangles or chain, wearing broken shoe
seventy-five cent bottle perfume
i said, “good morning”, i tipped my hat
all the while i was cunning like a rat
smiling gaily, looked her in the eye
i felt in pocket, the love me or die

[verse 3]
my past history, one to behold
i studied magic from days of old
membership, secret societies
power and wealth in my family
but matilda, darling
why you don’t take my wedding ring
like a demon under the floor
i buried the hoodoo down the back door

[verse 4]
lawd, word broke through the town
that a fever strike matilda down
nine thirty, the doctor arrive
priest come running, quarter to five
standing in the weeds early next day
i saw the meat wagon rolling away
i seen matilda laying in the back
her old mother wearing a suit of black

[verse 5]
sound the trumpet, and bang the drum
i wait for me judgement to come
i know her spirit is down beneath
i hear the weeping and gnashing of the teeth
flames of h-ll licks at my feet
in the shadow of the jungle i feel the heat
matilda’s waiting in h-ll for me too
all cause she died from a bad hoodoo
