I took me a river boat from Memphis and I rode to New Orleans. Met up with a little cayenne mamma. She said she`d like to be
my Delta queen, She said there`s one thing I forgot to tell you, Yeah there`s one thing you should know. She said my mamma
was a voodoo princess and my heart beats black like coal, Well she made up some black magic gumbo and some voodoo etoufe`
She said once you taste my cookin boy It`s gonna steal your heart away, She said there`s one more thing I forgot to tell you
Yeah there`s one thing that you should know, She said once you taste my baby`s cookin`, It`s gonna turn your heart black like
coal. Now she took me on a little walk down the bayou, On a lovers rendevous. She said take my hand little cajun man gonna do
the thing lovers do, now there`s one thing I forgot to tell you, yeah there`s one thing you should know, she said ohh-oooh-oooh-
oh ohhh mmmm-mmmm-mm-mm-mmmm, Now this ain`t hardly no story, Yeah it`s barely even worth the tell, But you ramble around
in a delta town, You`re sure to lose yourself, And there`s one thing I forgot to tell you, yeah there`s one thing I forgot to tell
you. I said now don`t you go messin` with no voodoo mamma, She take you straight to hell.
