Somehow I always knew, that someday we'd be through
Now that it's happened, I just can't believe it's true
I've done the best I could to keep from feeling blue
Can't get you off my mind—what am I gonna do?
(Voodoo, mildew, and shandu!)
Why daddy, I didn't know you were here
(I'm right here lookin at ya, honey. If it ain't me, it's my shadow)
To think I sent you far away
(I ain't been nowhere)
Sorry—I thought you'd stay away from me
(Not a [?])
But hopelessly you've got me down, you left your voodoo all around—
(I left my trunk in town!)
—I got a need for you
(Oooh, yes)
Thought I'd killed the crave for you
(I hear you)
I dug my heart a grave for you
(Mm hmm)
So don't you keep on haunting me
The memories won't let me be
(Yes)
I got a need for you
(I wish you had a weed for me!)
Oh tell me why, why must I think about you?
Oh daddy, tell me why can't I live without you?
Oh, no one else will do for me
(Mm hmm)
And I feel
You've got me cravin' night and day
Come back and take these blues away
(I'm gonna take your pay away)
Play me some trumpet and your original blues
Oh baby tell me why must I think about you?
Oh tell me why can't I live...
You've got me cravin' day by day
Come back and take these blues away
I got a need for you
(I don't want you now!)
And still I got a need for you
