Kent "Omar" Dykes
recording of 1995
from
Muddy Springs Road (Watermelon 1036)
Over on the corner is the
juju
man
He can put a
monkey paw
in your hand
And if you want your future told
The gypsy woman's got the house next door
Yonder goes the
hoo-doo
rhythm man
Shakes them bones in the hoo-doo band
He's headed down to the union hall
He gonna have a Hoo Doo Ball
Gonna be rockin´ at the Hoo Doo Ball
He gonna rock at the Hoo Doo Ball
Tangle Eye told Jungle Jim
Tell Memphis Minnie and Lightnin´ Slim
And don't forget old Speckle Red
Cadillac George and Dime Store Fred
Yonder goes the hoo-doo rhythm man
Shakes them bones in the hoo-doo band
He's headed down to the union hall
He gonna have a Hoo Doo Ball
Gonna be rockin´ at the Hoo Doo Ball
He gonna rock at the Hoo Doo Ball
Do the black cat boogie all night long
Screamin´ Jay gonna sing his song
He's gonna put a spell
