Hoodoo Operator

Oh, I seen him walkin'

On down that road

He got a broken push cart

With a heavy load

Oh, Lord have mercy

Upon my wicked soul

Ah, he looked right at me

With his eyes of coal

It's the hoodoo operator

Hoodoo operator

Hoodoo operator

Hoodoo operator

Ah, he'll sell you liquids

To cure that whooping cough

And fine liniments

At a poor man's cost

Ah, but when your time is up boy

And you feel that chill

He will come softly knocking

To collect his bill

It's the hoodoo operator

Hoodoo operator

Hoodoo operator

Hoodoo operator

Oh, I seen him walkin'

On down that road

He got a broken white man

With a heavy load

Oh, Lord have mercy

Upon my foolish soul

It is so cold and dark

Behind these eyes of coal

It's the hoodoo operator

Hoodoo operator

Hoodoo operator

Hoodoo operator

Operate
