I’m taking four strings of your hair
And a five dollar bill
I‘m gonna put it in a letter
I’m gonna drop it in the mail
I’m gonna send it to a woman
That a friend of mine told me about
She’s a gumbo cooker
And an alligator whooper
Makes a dead man jump and shout
Talking about a woman named Hannah
Down in Louisiana
Oh she’s a Mojo worker
She gonna work that thing for me
She gonna hear my misery
And I know, he’ll be coming on home soon.
She don’t wear fancy stitches
All she wears is a man’s britches
On every man, she takes a little zip
She’s got a forty five on the hip
She’s built up a reputation
In a southern land
Saturday night about twelve o’clock
You know she hoodoos the voodoo clan
Talking about a woman named Hannah
Down in Louisiana
Oh she’s a Mojo worker
She gonna work that thing for me
She gonna hear my misery
And I know, he’ll be coming on home soon
Mojo Hannah, she’s the best in all the land
Mojo Hannah, I know she’s gonna find my man
I’m gonna be sitting there, by the railroad track
I know, I know, he’ll be coming back, oh
I’m taking four strings of your hair
And a five dollar bill
I‘m gonna put it in a letter
I’m gonna drop it in the mail
I’m gonna send it to a woman
That a friend of mine told me about
She’s a gumbo cooker
And an alligator whooper
Makes a dead man jump and shout
Talking about a woman named Hannah
Down in Louisiana
Oh she’s a Mojo worker
She gonna work that thing for me
She gonna hear my misery
And I know, he’ll be coming on home soon.
Oeh, mmm, she gonna work it out
