Elkie Brooks Mojo Hannah Lyrics

I'm taking four strands 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 whipper

Make a dead man jump and shout

Talking about a woman named Hannah

Down in Louisiana

Oh, she's a mojo worker

She's gonna work that thing for me

She's 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

And now and then she takes a little sip

She's got a forty-five on her hip

She's built up a reputation in the southern land

Saturday night about twelve o'clock

You know she voodoos the voodoo man

Talking about a woman named Hannah

Down in Louisiana

Oh, she's a mojo worker

She's gonna work that thing for me

She's 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

And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

He'll be coming back

I'm taking four strands 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 whipper

Make a dead man jump and shout

Talking about a woman named Hannah

Down in Louisiana

Oh, she's a mojo worker

She's gonna work that thing for me

She's gonna hear my misery

And I know he'll be coming on home soon

She gonna work it

She gonna work it out

Work your mojo, Hannah

Work your mojo

Work that thing for me

Work that thing for me...
