Lyrics
Well, i stand up next to a mountain
And i chop it down with the edge of my hand
Yeah
Well, i stand up next to a mountain
And i chop it down with the edge of my hand
Well, i pick up all the pieces and make an island
Might even raise a little sand
Yeah
'Cause i'm a voodoo child
Lord knows i'm a voodoo child baby
I want to say one more last thing
I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time
I'll give it right back to ya one of these days
Hahaha
I said i didn't mean to take up all your sweet time
I'll give it right back one of these days
Oh yeah
If i don't meet you no more in this world then uh
I'll meet ya on the next one
And don't be late
Don't be late
'Cause i'm a voodoo child voodoo child
Lord knows i'm a voodoo child
Hey hey hey
I'm a voodoo child baby
I don't take no for an answer
Question no
Yeah

an early studio-take-a breakdown because Jimi makes a mistake
Well, I stand up next to a mountain
And I chop it down with the edge of my hand.
Well, I stand up next to a mountain,
Chop it down with the edge of my hand.
Well, I pick up all the pieces and make an island,
Might even raise just a little sand.
Cause Im a voodoo chile,
Lord knows Im a voodoo chile, baby.
I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time,
Ill give it right back to you one of these days.
I said I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time,
Ill give it right back one of these days.
And if I don't meet you no more in this world
Then ill, I'll meet you in the next one and don't be late, don't be late.
Cause Im a voodoo chile, voodoo chile,
Lord knows Im a voodoo chile, hey hey hey.
Im a voodoo chile, baby. -
