About Voodoo Child

"Voodoo Child" is a dance song which was written by Elvis Costello, James Ash, and Steve Davis, and produced by Ash for the Rogue Traders second album Here Come the Drums. It was the first single for the new member Natalie Bassingthwaighte. It was released as a CD single in Australia on 27 May 2005 as the first song released from the album. It was later released in the United Kingdom on 10 July 2006 as a digital download and CD single.

You're like Voodoo baby you just take hold
Put your cards on the table baby, do I twist, do I fold?
You're like Voodoo honey, all silver and gold
Why don't you tell me my future why don't I sell you my soul?
So hear it comes the sound of drums (here come the drums here come the drums)

Baby, baby, baby. You are my Voodoo Child, my voodoo child
Don't say maybe maybe
It's supernatural I'm coming undone 
It's supernatural I'm coming undone 

You've like Voodoo Baby, Your kisses are cold
Fell your poison running threw me, let me never grow old
You're like voodoo honey, my pictures you stole
You play me like a puppet, stick in pins like a doll
So hear it comes the sound of drums (here come the drums here come the drums)

Baby baby baby. You are my Voodoo Child, my voodoo child
Don't say maybe maybe
It's supernatural I'm coming undone 
It's supernatural I'm coming undone 

Hear come the drums here come the drums

Baby, baby, baby. You are my Voodoo Child, my voodoo child
Don't say maybe maybe
It's supernatural I'm coming undone
Baby, baby, baby, I just take hold
Do I twist do I fold?
