Hoochie coochie man in the dark With his voodoo dolls His Robert Johnson records play on Every day he wastes away Dust for bones Fade into the bleak unknown Magic man in the pale moonlight A ghost or a lie Folk law superstition we hide No-one knows what made him this way But some might say The devil woman Turned his diamonds into dust And all his loving into rust A promise from the grave Made by the blade Sealed in blood Won't mend a blackened heart A promise from the grave Made by the blade Sealed in blood Won't mend a blackened heart Empty city that's lost its goal He sits alone Make up masks the crack in his soul Painted face from the book of life Snake neck tie Waiting for the day of the dead The last breath he adds fuel to the fire Spirits raise higher Calls out beyond the grave Through the trap door he must go Deep down below To find that woman Turned his diamonds into dust And all his loving into rust A promise from the grave Made by the blade Sealed in blood Won't mend a blackened heart A promise from the grave Made by the blade Sealed in blood Won't mend a blackened heart From heaven down to hell I command the sun and the moon Where the waves meet the land I will take mine back from you Fill your eyes with a blood red sky And a soul that is blackened through Make you feel how I have felt Now my gaze looks down on you Turned his diamonds into dust And all his loving into rust A promise from the grave Made by the blade Sealed in blood Won't mend a blackened heart A promise from the grave Made by the blade Sealed in blood Won't mend a blackened heart A promise from the grave Made by the blade Sealed in blood Won't mend a blackened heart A promise from the grave Made by the blade Sealed in blood Won't mend a blackened heart
