I got High John in my pocket And mud in my shoes Walked all the way from Mississippi Just to spread the news Don't care for idle conversation I'm not your girl about town But when it comes to make music I run the voodoo down And here in this quiet place I own Worlds are born The night of my conception The star were fixed Conjure woman told my mother She's gonna run and twist Don't have to worry 'bout her learning She's gonna get around And when it comes to traveling She'll run the voodoo down Here in this quiet place we own We're born Destiny is my deliverance I walk this road alone I take my pleasure in remembering I'm just a rolling stone And I don't mind some company If you want to stay around But when it comes to my loving I run the voodoo down And here in this quiet place I own Worlds are born
