( Jimi Hendrix ) Well I stand up next to a mountain I chop it down with the edge of my hand Well I stand next to a mountain I chop it down with the edge of my hand I pick up all the tiny pieces and make an island Might even raise just a little sand - Yeah 'Cause I'm a Voodoo Child God knows I'm a Voodoo Child I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time I'll give it back one of these days I said I hate to take up all your sweet time I'll give it back one of these days And if I don't see you no more in this world I'll meet you on the next one But don't be late Don't be late 'Cause I'm a Voodoo Child God knows I'm a Voodoo Child
