Voodoo Lake Lyrics - Twenty - Lynyrd Skynyrd

Way down yonder you can hear the wind blow 

Through the tall grass growing in the old bayou 

The old bayou 

There's a dark haired woman that looks so fine 

Wearing hand me down clothes, drinking homemade wine 

No one ever knew who her daddy was 

The people down here say it's all because 

She's the daughter of the devil, the sister of a snake 

The keeper of souls down on Voodoo Lake 

There's a city boy across the county line 

Came looking for the legend of the girl so fine 

Well the stories that he heard, well they had to be lies 

But he found out different when he looked in her eyes 

Well he tried to run away but she had control 

He's findin' out now what everybody knows 

He knew it was over when she started to shake 

Now there's one more soul down on Voodoo Lake 

There's an eerie silence at the break of dawn 

A chill in the air, something wrong 

When a shadow crosses the ground 

Those long lost souls never make a sound 

You'd think by now they'd realize 

She'll never break her bayou ties 

She's the daughter of the devil, the sister of a snake 

The keeper of souls down on Voodoo Lake 

Voodoo Lake, Voodoo Lake 

Daughter of the devil, sister of a snake 

Voodoo Lake 

Down on Voodoo Lake, down on Voodoo Lake 

You can see her down on Voodoo Lake
