Verse 1
(C major) (F major) (F sharpdim)
(G major) (D major) (G major) Who's that
knocking on (F major) the door?
It's Bob, Bill.
(G major) Bob who? Bob Range.
Oh, (C major) come on in, Slim. (F major)
(G major) Hey, Bill.
Sounded like (C major) you was in
from where that door slammed, (G major) man.
How you doing?
How's everything?
Man, I'm (A minor) down in the dumps (G major) today.
Down in (C major) the dumps?
What do you mean?
Do you know my old (G major) lady
that stole all the relief checks
and (D major) pawn tickets
and packed up an (G major) d left?
Oh, my (C major) goodness.
Well, I had (G major) the same trouble, you know.
Yeah?
But I finally got it (D minor) straightened
all out for me.
Yeah? (G major) Yeah.
(C major) You straightened?
Listen, (F major) and I'll tell you (G major) about it.
I want to hear this.
(C major) Talk to me. (G major)
Yes, (C major) I've been down (G major) to Algiers.
Al (C major) giers? (G major)
I had a (C major) talk with the voodoo man.
(G major) This cat's (C major) crying, ain't it?
Listen to this (G major) cat.
Yes, (F major) I've been down (C major) to Algiers.
That's in Louisiana.
I (C minor) had (C major) a talk with the voodoo man.
You talked with him, but did he hear you?
(G major) Yes, I had to tell him my troubles.
(D major) Cause I knew he'd
(C major) understand.
He understands everything.
I heard about that cat. (G major)
Now, I (C major) said to the voodoo man
What?
That my gal had put me down
(G major) Yeah, they do that now (E major) and then
And (C major) would he bring her back to me?
What could he do?
Before I'd lose my mind
(G major) Yeah, I know
So the (F major) voodoo man (C major) took some herbs
Took what?
(G major) And some (F major) wild, cringy (C major) roots, too
This cat's getting ready for
isn't boiled them in hot, greasy water
Uh -oh
Until it was a stew
Ain't gonna be long now
Yes, I've (G major) been down to Algiers
I (F major) had a talk (C major) with a voodoo man
I'm kinda scared of that cat.
Can I ride him?
Do you think (G major) it'd be alright if I ride him,
Bob?
Now the (C major) voodoo man said this'll fix him.
It'll fix him?
Only try just one thing more.
What's that?
Get a long strand of her hair.
(F major) Uh -oh.
And you put (C major) it under her door.
I bought my own ladies, but she took
Now that (F major) stuff worked (C major) just like magic.
What? And my (F major) gal came
(C major) beggin' please
Did she really come back?
Yes, but I made her ask forgiveness
What? (C major) Down on her hands and knees
You cruel man
(F major) I've (G major) been down to Algiers, Bill
I hear ya, I hear (F major) ya
No, I don't wanna go there no (C major) more
I don't blame ya, I (G major) don't blame ya
Get that stuff straight, (C major) Jack (G major)
(C major) But don't do me no wrong, baby
(G major) Talk to (F major) her, talk to her, (G major) Slim
Yes, (E flat major) if you do,
I know (C major) just where to go (F major) (F sharpdim) (C major)
Thanks for your advice, it was mighty nice,
I'm leavin' now, you stay here, see ya man!
