Hoodoo Operator

Oh, I seen him walkin' on down that road
He got a broken push cart with a heavy load
Oh, Lord have mercy upon my wicked soul
Ah, he looked right at me with his eyes of coal

It's the hoodoo operator

Ah, he'll sell you liquids to cure that whooping cough
And fine liniments at a poor man's cost
Ah, but when your time is up boy and you feel that chill
He will come softly knocking to collect his bill

Oh, I seen him walkin' on down that road
He got a broken white man with a heavy load
Oh, Lord have mercy upon my foolish soul
It is so cold and dark behind these eyes of coal
