Текст песни: Exuma, The Obeah Man + перевод

I came down on a lightning bolt

Nine months in my Mama’s belly

When I was born the midwife screamed and shout

I had fire and brimstone coming out of my mouth

I’m Exuma, I’m the obeah man

(Exuma, obeah man)

Nananana nanana, nanana nana

Nananana nanana, nanana nana

Exuma was my name when I lived in the stars

Exuma was a planet that once lit Mars

I’ve got the voice of many in my throat

The teeth of a frog and the tail of a goat

I’m Exuma, I’m the obeah man

(Exuma, obeah man)

Yeah, nananana nanana, nanana nanana

Nananana nanana, nanana nanana

When I’ve got my big hat on my head

You know that I can raise the dead

And when I got my stick in my hand

You know that I am The Obeah Man

If you got a woman and she ain’t happy

Come see me for camalame

Take that camalame and you make her some tea

And she will love you all the time

And when she got you running like a train on a track

Take some flour and you make some pap

That ought to give you strength in your back

I’m Exuma, I’m the obeah man

(Exuma, obeah man)

Nananana nanana, nanana nanana

Nanananana nanana, nanana nanana

Yeah, Yeah

I’ve sailed with Charon, day and night

I’ve walked with Houngaman, Hector Hyppolite

Obeah, Obeah, Obeah, Obeah’s in me

(Obeah, obeah, obeah)

I drank the water from the fiery sea

I’m Exuma, I’m the obeah man

(Exuma, obeah man)

Nananana nanana, nanana nanana

Nanananana nanana, nanana nanana

Yeah, hey, hey hey

Hahaha

Tony McKay was my given name

Given on Cat island when my mama felt the pain

Creatures of the earth, space, sea, and land

I’m Exuma, I’m the obeah man

I’m Exuma, I’m the obeah man

(Exuma, obeah man)

Hey, hey, nanananana

Nanananana, hey, hey, hey

Think about a fixture, I’ll fix your hand

If you got a woman, oh, she’ll have a man

And if you have a man, I’ll get you a woman

Because I am the obeah man

You know I am the obeah man

Hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, oh yeah

I’m the obeah man, I’m the obeah man

I’m the obeah man, I’m the oh--

Woo, hoo, hoo, aw, uh-huh

I can make the sun fall from the sky

I can make man that wants …

I’m the obeah man, I’m the obeah man, I’m the oh--

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
