Jimi Hendrix Voodoo Chile (alternate Version) Lyrics

Voodoo Chile (alternate Version) Lyrics

Well, I'm a voodoo chile 

Lord I'm a voodoo chile 



Well, the night
I was born 

Lord I swear the moon turned a fire red 

The night I was
born 

I swear the moon turned a fire red 

Well my poor mother cried out
"lord, the gypsy was right!" 

And I seen her fell down right dead 

(Have
mercy) 



Well, mountain lions found me there waitin' 

And set me on
a eagles back 

Well, mountain lions found me there, 

And set me on a
eagles wing 

(Its the eagles wing, baby, what did I say) 

He took me
past to the outskirts of infinity, 

And when he brought me back, 

He
gave me a venus witch's ring 

Hey! 

And he said "Fly on, fly on"


Because I'm a voodoo chile, baby, voodoo chile 

Hey! 



Well, I
make love to you, 

And lord knows you'll feel no pain 

Say, I make love
to you in your sleep, 

And lord knows you felt no pain 

(Have mercy)


'Cause I'm a million miles away 

And at the same time I'm right here
in your picture frame 

(Yeah! What did I say now) 

'Cause I'm a voodoo
chile 

Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile 



Well my arrows are made of
desire 

From far away as Jupiters sulphur mines 

Say my arrows are made
of desire, desire 

From far away as Jupiters sulphur mines 

(Way down by
the Methabe Sea, yeah) 

I have a humming bird and it hums so loud, 

You
think you were losing your mind, hmmm... 



Well I float in liquid
gardens 

And Arizona new red sand 

(Yeah) 

I float in liquid
gardens 

Way down in Arizona red sand 



Well, I taste the honey
from a flower named Blue, 

Way down in California 

And the n New York
drowns as we hold hands 



'Cause I'm a voodoo chile 

Lord knows I'm
a voodoo chile
