They call me, Dr. John, The Night Tripper
Got my sizzling Gris-Gris in my hand
Day trippin' up, back down by you
I'm the last of the best
They call me the Gris-Gris man
Got many clients
Come from miles around
Running down my prescription
I got my medicine, to cure all your ills
I got remedies of every description

(Gris-Gris Gumbo Ya Ya)
Hey Now

If you got love trouble, got a bad woman you can't control
I got just the thing for you
Something called control in the hearts get together drops.
If you work to hard and you need a little rest 
Try my utilize rub put some on my drop fix and jam, 
Put some in your breakfast.

Try a little bit ah

So why war if your neighbors give you trouble 
Put your fitness in the street
Seal a Jew in my whole car in the street
Try my Dragon Blood
My Drawen Hidin' 
My Secret Sand
Try a little black cat if your woman got another man
 
So easy does it as you put it in the palm of your hand
