Am
She was a dancer at the Club Zydeco Moon
E                                        Am
An all night social house and all day saloon

She had the face and body the devil's own desire
     E                                            Am
Her lips were full and sugar sweet as blackberry wine

      G
She danced around my table
           Am
Flashin' gris-gris eyes at me
   G                          Am
Swayin' to the tempo of a squeezebox melody

She reached down and snatched the folded money

from my fist
    E                                 Am
So easy to give into and too hard to resist

G                           Am
She did her business underneath the candle light
G                    Am
Always aware of Mama Zuzu's watchful eye

How many young boys have lost their innocence
E
Turned into old men wonderin' where their
       Am
money went

( F  Am  F  G  E )

     Am
What happened 20 years ago seem like yesterday

I don't drive through that part of town,
   E           Am
I go the other way

She still dances through my bedroom every time I

go to sleep
         E
To the rhythm of the music that the squeezebox
        Am
player keeps

  G                                Am
I smell the incense burning Mama Zuzu's cigarette
   G                          Am
Louisiana heat wave and the midnight summer sweat

Somewhere down that alley there's an old run down saloon
       E                                   Am
She's waiting there for me at Club Zydeco Moon

      G
She danced around my table
           Am
Flashin' gris-gris eyes at me
   G                          Am
Swayin' to the tempo of a squeezebox melody

She reached down and snatched the folded money

from my fist
    E                                 Am
So easy to give into and too hard to resist
