Dixie Drug Store
Ooh jambalaya Ooh jambalaya
It was muggy july around supper time When i pulled into new orleans I got dropped off at south rampart street I was hungry for a plate of greens
I made my way down the banquette Where i could see an open door And overhead a sign made of painted pine read The dixie drug store
Peppers and roots were hanging From the rafters above There were oils and sprays all on display For money luck and for love
I reached down to pick one up When a dark hand grabbed my arm And before i could see just who it was She said you don't want that charm
Ooh jambalaya
The last man to walk that thing out of here Just up and disappeared Found his wallet and his wingtip shoes Near a tombstone down in algiers
What you need my travelling friend Is a place to wash your jeans And i wouldn't be the least surprised If you were hungry for a plate of greens
She beckoned me on up the stairs For she'd done made up her mind Said take off your hat and kick off your boots And leave your pride behind
Ooh jambalaya
She took me down to a secret place In the bayou of her blankets She offered to share her bourbon I thanked her then i drank it
Thru a small crack in the ceiling Burst the louisiana moon It shone down on our bodies And we began to croon

Ooh jambalaya
We laughed until the mornin' By then my pants had dried I picked up my hat and pulled on my boots And i gathered up my pride
I figured she had done stepped out I didn't see her anywhere And i set out to find her I headed on downstairs
Got down to the bottom I couldn't believe my eyes Gone were all the bottles And the remedy supplies
Ooh jambalaya
I shouted out for marie I darted out the door An old man on the wooden porch said What you in there for
Son you got no business The hoodoo store's been closed Long as i remember A century i suppose
But mister i just spent the night With a young gal named laveau He said the widow paris Done had a little laugh on you
I said you mean to tell me That was the voodooin' He nodded yes none other The queen of new orleans
Ooh jambalaya [scraps of phrases - till the end] Ooh jambalaya Ooh jambalaya Ooh jambalaya Ooh jambalaya Ooh jambalaya
