Black Cat Bones

You got a heart that's made of stone
And you play with black cat bones
You got this friend in New Orleans
She's a Cajun Queen

You drink your whiskey from the still
And make your stews out of road kill
You got an eye tattooed no lie
Upon your thigh

Those black cat bones
Won't make you fly
They won't ward off the evil eye
Those black cat bones
They're bring you pain
You'll wonder why you've gone insane

Your Mom's a whore in Baton Rouge
Your Pa's a drifter played the blues
He's jumping trains just to get home
To your black cat bones

You look into your crystal ball
The conjured dead are in your thrall
The shelf is filled with voodoo dolls
And black cat bones

Those black cat bones
Won't make you fly
They won't ward off the evil eye
Those black cat bones
They're bring you pain
You'll wonder why you've gone insane

Those black cat bones leave them alone
Those black cat bones won't take you home
