Hoodoo


I wanna stay down, down
I’m at the bottom of the sea
I wanna stay down, down
I’m at the bottom of the sea

I said I boogie underwater I be groovin baby
Me and the devil dancin wit the moon lit baby
They said that’s what it had to be to do this baby
They said you must be practicin the hoodoo baby!

Bobby Johnson when he strolled up to that crossroad (yeah)
I’m Muddy Waters when he amplified it also (yeah)
I’m James Brown when he was workin the Apollo (yeah)
I’m Ray Charles turnin darkness into bravo
Ok I see some people hollerin like who dat dere
Boy you ain’t seen my name been ringin I’m like oooh contraire
How you gon fix your mouth to act like we some new ones here
It’s way too many accolades I got a few points here
I got a few a points there, the ancestors I lift
I seen a demon tune a banjo he was down by the Styx
They tried to ween me off the ammo I’m denouncing it quick
Somebody need to light a candle for the bounce in this bitch

I wanna stay down, down
I’m at the bottom of the sea
Swank, get your swank on baby
I wanna stay down, down
I’m at the bottom of the sea
Swank, get your swank on baby

I said I boogie underwater I be groovin baby
Me and the devil dancin wit the moon lit baby
They said that’s what it had to be to do this baby
They said you must be practicin the hoodoo baby!

I’m like Prince in the lakes of Minnetonka (yeah)
I’m like Paul Robeson when at the opera (yeah)
I’m like Sonny rubbin shoulders with the mafia (yeah)
I’m like Mike moonwalkin at the concerts (yeah)
Never could rest I studied the best
The strange fruit was hangin now we like a delicatessen
Ima have step it up and preach a delicate lesson
Pay attention when I’m speaking like a reverend I’m blessin
See black is beautiful the way that we done cultured the world
If we was all created equal be the ultimate world
Don’t be afraid to be a light with all the vultures my girl
Boy don’t you ever forget where we had to come from ya heard?

I wanna stay down, down
I’m at the bottom of the sea
Swank, get your swank on baby
I wanna stay down, down
I’m at the bottom of the sea
Swank, get your swank on baby

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
