E
Down in Louisiana where the blacktrees grow

Lives a VooDoo woman named Marie Laveux
          A
She gotta black gapped tooth
                E 
And a mojo bone

Nephew wouldn't leave her 'lone 
         B                           E
She'd go ooooooh... Another man done gone

Well she lives in the swamp in a hollow log

With a one eyed snake and a three legged dog
          A                            E
She got a big boney body, stringy hair

And if she ever caught you messin 'round there
         B                           E
She'd go ooooooh... Another man done gone
A
Then one night when the moon was black
E                                  F#
Into the swamp come a handsome Jack

A no good man like you all know
       B
He was lookin around for Marie Laveux
        E
He said Marie Laveux you lovely witch

Give me a charm that'll make me rich
A
Give me a million dollars and I'll tell you what I'll do
E
This very night I'm gonna marry you
             B                           E
And it'll be mmmmmmm... Another man done gone
   A
So Marie she done some magic shook a little sand
E
Made a million dollars and put it in his hand
         F#
Then she wiggled and she giggled and she said 
          B
Hey, Hey, I'm gettin ready for my weddin' day
E
Oh handsome Jack, he said goodbye Marie 

You're too damn ugly for a rich man like me
     A
Then Marie she started mumblin', teeth started mashin'
E
She started tremblin' and her eyes started flashin'
           B                           E 
And she go ooooooh... Another man done gone

You ever get down where the blacktrees grow

And meet a VooDoo woman named Marie Laveux
A
She ever asked you to make her your wife
    E
You better be true for the rest of your life
            B                           E
Or it'll be ooooooh... Another man done gone
            B                  B      B      B           E7 
Or it'll be ooooooh... Another man... Man... Man... Done gone...
