Well, I'm a voodoo chile

Lord I'm a voodoo chile



Well, the night I was born

Lord I swear the moon turned a fire red

The night I was born

I swear the moon turned a fire red

Well my poor mother cried out "lord, the gypsy was right!"

And I seen her fell down right dead

(Have mercy)



Well, mountain lions found me there waitin'

And set me on a eagles back

Well, mountain lions found me there,

And set me on a eagles wing

(Its the eagles wing, baby, what did I say)

He took me past to the outskirts of infinity,

And when he brought me back,

He gave me a venus witch's ring

Hey!

And he said "Fly on, fly on"

Because I'm a voodoo chile, baby, voodoo chile

Hey!



Well, I make love to you,

And lord knows you'll feel no pain

Say, I make love to you in your sleep,

And lord knows you felt no pain

(Have mercy)

'Cause I'm a million miles away

And at the same time I'm right here in your picture frame

(Yeah! What did I say now)

'Cause I'm a voodoo chile

Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile



Well my arrows are made of desire

From far away as Jupiters sulphur mines

Say my arrows are made of desire, desire

From far away as Jupiters sulphur mines

(Way down by the Methabe Sea, yeah)

I have a humming bird and it hums so loud,

You think you were losing your mind, hmmm...



Well I float in liquid gardens

And Arizona new red sand

(Yeah)

I float in liquid gardens

Way down in Arizona red sand



Well, I taste the honey from a flower named Blue,

Way down in California

And the n New York drowns as we hold hands



'Cause I'm a voodoo chile

Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile
