Lyrics
We gotta take our time
Gettin' this one started
Soul, body, soul, body, soul, body
Soul, body, soul, body, soul, body
Soul, body, soul, body, soul, body
Gonna take my time
Gettin' this one together
Gonna take my time
Gettin' this one together
Gotta go home now
Gotta go home, yeah
You know about the holy roller church?
Ain't that were it started?
Did I know the angels name by name?
I can eat thunder and drink the rain
Yeah they call me Nina and Pices too
There ain't nothing that I can't do
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
Obeah now
Obeah, Obeah now
I'm the Obeah woman from beneath the sea
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?
I kiss the moon and hug the sun
I kiss the moon and hug the sun
Oh yeah, oh well, oh well
You people from the islands
Know about the Obeah woman
I didn't put the name on myself
And I don't like it sometimes
The weight is too heavy
The weight is too heavy
The weight is too heavy
The weight is too heavy
Let's finish it
