Well, I stand up next to a mountain
And I chop it down with the edge of my hand
Well, I pick up all the pieces and make an island
Might even raise a little sand

\’Cause I\’m a voodoo child
Lord knows I\’m a voodoo child, baby

I\’ll give it right back to you one of these days, hahaha
I said I didn\’t mean to take up all your sweet time
I\’ll give it right back one of these days
Oh yeah
If I don\’t meet you no more in this world, then
I\’ll meet you in the next one
And don\’t be late
Don\’t be late
\’Cause I\’m a voodoo child, voodoo child

I\’m a voodoo child, baby
