Hey mamma soul mamma soul papa
Hey soul body soul body soul body
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey yah gonna take my time
Gettin' this one together
Gettin' this one together
You know about the holy roller church?
Ain't that were it started?
And I cry that I think that I can't do
But I know where my roots are
Sometimes my daughter says
"Mamma I don't understand them people"
I don't either, but I'm fond of 'em
Ha do you know what an Obeah woman is?
I'm the Obeah woman from beneath the sea
To get to Satan you gotta pass through me
'Cause I know the angels name by name
I can eat thunder and drink the rain
Yeah they call me Nita and Pisces too
There ain't nothing that I can't do
If I choose to, if you let me
Ha I'm the Obeah woman, above pain
I can eat thunder and drink the rain
I kiss the moon and hug the sun
And call the spirits and make 'em run
'Cause I ain't praying, never was
Hackle and patience oh yeah
I'm the Obeah woman from beneath the sea
To get to Satan baby you gotta pass through me
I know the angels name by name
I can eat thunder and drink the rain
How you think I lasted this long?
I kiss the moon and hug the sun
You people from the islands
Know about the Obeah woman
I didn't put the name on myself
Sometimes, but the weight is too heavy
