Hot Voodoo - Marlene Dietrich

Did you ever happen to hear of voodoo?

Hear it and you won’t give a damn what you do

Tom-tom's put me under a sort of voodoo

And the whole night long

I don’t know the right from wrong

Hot voodoo, black as mud

Hot voodoo, in my blood

That African tempo, has made a slave

Hot voodoo, dance of sin

Hot voodoo, worse than gin

I’d follow a cave man right into his cave

That beat gives me a wicked sensation

My conscious wants to take a vacation

Got voodoo, head to toes

Hot voodoo, burn my clothes

I want to start dancing, just wearing a smile

Hot voodoo, I’m aflame

I’m really not to blame

That African tempo is meaner than mean

Hot voodoo make me brave

I want to misbehave

I’m beginning to feel like an African queen

Those drums bring up the heaven inside me

I need some great big angel to guide me

Hot voodoo, makes me wild

Oh fireman, save this child

I going to blazes

I want to be bad
