Obeah woman
Yes, I`m the Obeah woman
Do you know what one is?
Ha do you know what an Obeah woman is?
I`m the Obeah woman from beneath the sea
To get to satan you gotta pass through me
`Cause I know the angels name by name
I can eat thunder and drink the rain
Been through enough
Yeah they call me Nita and Pices too
There ain`t nothing that I can`t do
If I choose to, if you let me
Ha I`m the Obeah woman, above pain
I can eat thunder and drink the rain
I kiss the moon and hug the sun
And call the spirits and make `em run
You hear me?
You hear me?
`Cause I ain`t praying, never was
Just waiting for my time
Waiting for to die
Hackle and patience
Hackle and patience oh yeah

To get to satan baby you gotta pass through me
I know the angels name by name
I can eat thunder and drink the rain
How you think I lasted this long?
Alright, alright
I kiss the moon and hug the sun
O yeah oh well oh well
You people from the islands
Know about the Obeah woman
I did`t put the name on myself
And I don`t like it
Sometimes, but the weight is too heavy
The weight is too heavy
Let` finish it
