Exuma, the Obeah Man Songtext
von Exuma

I came down on a lightning bolt,
Nine months in my Mama′s belly
When I was born the midwife
Screamed and shout
I had fire and brimstone
Coming out of my mouth

I'm Exuma, I′m The Obeah Man

Exuma was my name when I lived in the stars
Exuma was a planet that once lit Mars,
I've got the voice of many in my throat
The teeth of a frog and the tail of a goat

I'm Exuma, I′m The Obeah Man


When I′ve got my big hat on my head
You know that I can raise the dead
When I got my stick in my hand
You know that I am The Obeah Man
If you got a woman and she ain't happy
Come see me for camalame
Take that camalame and you make her some tea
And she will love you all the time
And when she got you running
Like a train on a track
Take some flour and you make some pap
That will give you strength in your back

I′m Exuma, I'm The Obeah Man

I′ve sailed with Charon, day and night
I've walked with Hougaman, Hector Hippolite
Obeah, Obeah, Obeah, Obeah′s in me
I drank the water from the firery sea

I'm Exuma, I'm The Obeah Man

Tony McKay was my given name
Given on Cat island when my mother felt the pain.
Creatures of the Earth, Space, Sea, and Land,

I′m Exuma, I′m The Obeah Man
I'm Exuma, I′m The Obeah Man
