lyrics

Marie

Going to Louisiana, I’m gonna see my baby there
See my Marie down there
She’s not so tall she’s got coal black hair

Deep down in the swamp
She wrestles with an alligator
She’ll fry ‘em up in a pan with sweet onions and red potatoes

Marie
Woman from new Orleans
Momma called her the voodoo queen
Finest woman I ever seen
You got your spell on me
Momma said you are evil, but you all right with me

Asked the momma for the daughter’s hand
I’ve got a home in the city but I’m a country man

Under the cypress I sing my bride an ancient tune
Slow pole my pirogue by the light of the silvery moon

-D. Dudeck
