"tomorrow I might be rich, tomorrow I might be dead
but for tonight I think I'd like to find a little head"
she said - she said, I could swear that's what she said
But "C'mon up and see me" is all she said

She called me up night before last, that was a big surprise
She don't have no telephone, she just appeared before my eyes
she said "Pardon me for living but you see the graveyard's full
so I have brought you here to do the voodoo ritual"

I said "Darling if you were Barbie, I'd never be your Ken
I won't be no voodoo doll, I'll won't be no shrunken head"

She called me up night before last, that was a big surprise
She don't have no telephone, she just appeared before my eyes
she said "C'mon out to the bayou, we're gonna put on a little do
It's about time for a Voodoo ball, we'll have a Voodoo Barbie-Q"

I said "Darling if you were Barbie, I'd never be your Ken
but I'll be your voodoo doll, well I'll be your shrunken head"
