Voodoo Lady is a song by American rock band Ween. It was released as the third and final Single off their fourth studio album, Chocolate and Cheese, released in 1994.
It is also one of two Ween songs—the other being "Push th' Little Daisies"—to chart on the US Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart, peaking at number 32.[2]
Song information
[edit]The title track is in typical Bayou-style blues format. Chants of "Boogie boogie boogie boogie" are pervasive throughout the song. Most of the lyrics describe a woman who supposedly is always "doing that stuff that you do", and "messing me up with your voodoo". The singer seems to be someone somehow romantically involved with the Voodoo Lady. The song slowly winds down at the end, with a final blast of sound finishing the song.
