& Quot;loa & Quot;house Lyrics - King Diamond

1932, north of baton rouge 

Louisiana nights are darker than before 

Along the mississippi, that is where it is 

The old colonial house, a mansion if you will 

White as snow, the mansion still seems to have it's glow 

And when the moon is full and white 

You can hear the drums of voodoo echo in the night 

In the "loa" house, misery will strike again 

Jean le noir, the first to own this house 

He was a voodoo priest, a houngan so they say 

The voodoo cemetery, that is where he is 

Died at the hand of an evil bocor's will 

They say..., he's been walking the house ever since that day 

And when the moon is full and white 

You can hear the drums of voodoo echo in the night 

In the "loa" house, misery will strike again 

Solos: andy-herb 

They never should have come, no no no 

They never should have come to the "loa" house 

They never should have come, no no no 

They never should have come to the "loa" house 

7 days ago... the lafayetted moved in 

Sarah is with child and david is the man 

This is no abigail, this child will survive 

And grandfather dear, why did they bring him here? 

White as snow, that is all he sees, oh he's been blind for years 

Solo: andy 

They never should have come, no no no 

They never should have come to the "loa" house 

They never should have come, no no no 

They never should have come to the "loa" house 

And when the moon is full and white 

You can hear the drums of voodoo echo in the night 

In the "loa" house, misery will strike again 

In the "loa" house, misery will strike again 

And again...and again...and again... and again...
