Well, it's ninety degrees on the outside
It's a hundred and ten on the inside
Take all your guns and your razor blades
Come on and join the souffle
Cookin' a meal and loaded dice
Go to the sweet dark paradise
Jelly roll and pink champagne
Cheese fumes and high priced cocaine
Hey baby, that voodoo man's back in town
Yeah, I'm back
And I got that pure religion
I'm going out and tear Blue City down
Look here
Them bad boys up in the back room
Are gonna be some rough trade pretty soon
And it won't be the kind they can eat
They're gonna choke on all that raw meat
Makes a real man lose his appetite
To see that jailbait steak out all night
Ain't no place for a girl like you
To get the kind of loving she's supposed to
Hey baby, sick and tired of the self-abuse that's going 'round
I don't like this city
Gonna satisfy you, mama
Just a-watch me tear Blue City down
Hey, watch me do it
ย
Hey baby, your voodoo man's back in town
Hey baby, voodoo man's back in town
I'm gonna make love to you
While we go out and tear Blue City down
Tear Blue City down
Gonna tear Blue City down
Watch me do it
ย
Gonna be two bad bad big bluesy
Gonna tear it down
Gonna tear it down
