Now, an I wonder what the matter wit` times?
A-seem like ev`rything have changed
It seem like this woman that I`ve been lovin`, now
Have found some other man
I hold up my hand, now
I`m just tryin` to get my baby to understand, now
See, my baby don`t love me no mo`
All because somebody have hoodooed the hoodoo, man
One night, I`m goin` down in Lou`siana
An buy me another mojo hand
Well, because I`ve got to break up my baby
From lovin` this other man
Now, I hold up my hands
I`m just tryin` to make my baby, understand
Oh, my baby don`t love me no mo`
She says, `Somebody have hoodooed the hoodoo, man`
`Well alright, John!`
(harmonica & instrumental)
`Yeah, now a little feelin`
I used to have a way with women
Make plenty money an ev`rything
But my woman don`t love me no mo`
She said, `Somebody hoodooed the hoodoo man`
Now, I just hold up my hands
I`m just tryin` to get my baby, understand
Well, my baby don`t love me no mo`
Well, she said, `Somebody hoodooed the hoodoo man`
Well now, goodbye baby
Someday, I`ll see you soon
I`ve got somethin` to tell you, baby
Somebody else can have your room
And I hold up my hands
I`m just tryin` to gettin` my baby to understand
Well, my baby don`t love me no mo`
She says, `Somebody hoodooed the hoodoo man`.
