Pretending I Was Dancing

The other night
I was messin'
With my baby
Pretending 
I was dancing
My black angel
came down at midnight
With his belly aching
And his heart pounding
A cloud of funny smoke
Still lingering
Around his shadow
Soothing his soul
When all of a sudden
I got a call
From a New Orleans
Area code
A guy with many names
The Doctor was one of 'em
asked for my John
I told him:
Honey, I don't care
What he owes you
we got an hour to go
He's all paid up for
But rest assured
As soon as we're done
He's gonna head down
To the marshes and
The eerie swamps
Of the beautiful Bayou
