I studied evil, I cant deny, Was a hoodoo charm called a Love Me or Die, Some fingernail, a piece of her dress, Apocathery, Devils behes I will relate, the piteous consequence my mistake, Fallin slave to passin desire, Makin the dreaded Love me or Die. Against a Jungle primeval green, She had the looks of a beauty queen No bangles or chain, wearin broken shoe Seventy-five cent bottle perfume. I said, Good mornin, I tipped my hat, All the while I was cunning like a rat, Smilin gaily, looked her in the eye, I felt in pocket, the Love me or Die My past history, one to behold, I studied magic from days of old, Membership, secret societies, Power and wealth in my family But Matilda, Darling, Why you dont take my wedding ring, Like a demon under the floor, I buried the hoodoo down the back door. Lawd, word broke through the town, That a fever strike Matilda down, Nine thirty, the doctor arrive, Priest come runnin, quarter to five. Standin in the weeds early next day, I saw the meat wagon rollin away, I seen Matilda layin in the back, Her old mother wearin a suit of black Sound the trumpet, and bang the drum, I wait for me judgement to come, I know her spirit is down beneath, I hear the weepin and gnashing of the teeth. Flames of Hell licks at my feet, In the shadow of the Jungle I feel the heat, Matildas waiting in Hell for me too, All cause she died from a bad hoodoo.
