Congo Square - Sonny Landreth

Might be superstition but some kind of somethin'

Goin' on down there

It might be superstition but some kind of somethin'

Goin' on down there

It’s an old time tradition when they play their

Drums at night in Congo Square

You can hear 'em in the distance

And the old folks up the bayou say a prayer

You can hear 'em in the distance

And the old folks up the bayou say a prayer

That’s when the voodoo people gather

And they play their drums at night in Congo Square

… voodoo people

My eyes were not believin'

What I seen there but I could not turn away

My eyes were not believin'

What I seen there but I could not turn away

They had that mojo in motion

And I seen 'em dance in trance with that snake

… snake dance

It might be superstition

But when I hear 'em in the night I say a prayer

Yeah it might be superstition

But when I hear 'em in the night I say a prayer

Because I respects tradition

Like the kind they carry on in Congo Square
