Bayou Sue
(c)Craig Wolff, MIke Siegel 2008.
Snakes hang like leaves
From the bald cypress trees
There's death from above
Death from below
In the Loozyanna swamp
It's everywhere you go
That's where I found Sue
She’s doin' voodoo
I felt her mojo
It was workin' hard
She saw me comin'
In her tarot cards
I held that lady
The moon bled red
She whispered in my ear
and said...
Baby, come on cast your spell
There's a thousand eyes watchin'
But they never tell....
Let's steam up the swamp
With a long moonlit romp
I can't get enough of
Bayou Sue and her Loozyanna love
She danced in my dream
When I woke with a scream
I found myself
Way up in a tree
Looked down and saw
What was lookin' up at me
The ground was all gator
I thought that they ate her
But they all took off
When I yelled for Sue
Her fav'rite food
Is alligator stew
She appeared from the fog
With a black bear's head
Threw down a log
Climbed up and said
Baby, come on cast your spell
There's a thousand eyes watchin'
Who can never tell
Let's steam up the swamp
With a little morning romp
I’ll never get enough of
Bayou Sue and her Loozyanna love
Search parties looking, asking around
Don’t tell ‘em nothin’, we don’t wanna be found
Baby come on cast your spell...
There's a thousand eyes watchin'
Who can never tell
Let's steam up the swamp
With another all night romp
I just can't get enough of
Bayou Sue and her Loozyanna love
