Exuma, you hear

Hey, hey yeah
Gonna take my time
Gettin' this one togheter
Gonna take my time
Gettin' this one togheter
Gotta go home now
Gotta go home yeah
You know about the holy roller church?
Ain't that were it started?
Ha Ha I know
We've outgrown it now
And I cry
That I think that I can't do
I like money yah
I like fine clothes
I like all of it
But I know where my roots are
You hear me
Sometimes my daughter says
"Mamma I don't understand them people"
I don't either, but I'm fond of 'em
Hear me
And I like it, aw
Say hey hey hey hey hey hey yeah
Need your help, hey hey
Cool down now, hey hey hey yeah yeah
Obeah woman
Yes, I'm the Obeah woman
Do you know what one is?
Ha, do you know what an Obeah woman is?
I'm the Obeah woman
From beneath the sea
To get to satan
You gotta pass through me
'Cause I know the angels
Name by name
I can eat thunder
And drink the rain
Been through enough
Yeah, they call me Nina and Pices too
There ain't nothing that I can't do
If I choose to
If you let me
Ha
I'm the Obeah woman
Above pain
I can eat thunder
And drink the rain
I kiss the moon
And hug the sun
And call the spirits
And make 'em run
You hear me?
You hear me?
'Cause I ain't praying
Never was
Just waiting for my time
Waiting for to die
Hackle and patience
Hackle and patience
Oh yeah
Obeah now
Obeah Obeah now
I'm the Obeah woman
From beneath the sea
To get to satan
Baby you gotta pass through me
I know the angels
Name by name
I can eat thunder
And drink the rain
How you think I lasted this long?
Alright, alright
I kiss the moon
And hug the sun
Oh, yeah
Oh well
Oh well
You people from the islands
Know about the Obeah woman
I did't put the name on myself
And I don't like it sometimes
But the weight is too heavy
The weight is too heavy
Let's finish it
