Biography:
Tony Joe White (Oak Grove, Louisiana, July 23, 1943 - October 24, 2018) was an American swamp rock singer-songwriter and guitarist, best known for his 1969 hit "Polk Salad Annie" and for "Rainy Night in Georgia", which he wrote but was first made popular by Brook Benton in 1970. He also wrote "Steamy Windows" and "Undercover Agent for the Blues", both hits for Tina Turner in 1989; those two songs came by way of Turner's producer at the time, Mark Knopfler, who is a friend of White.

[Verse1]
E7sus2
Coffee skin, little bit of cream
A Gm(maj7) E
Golden eyes with a touch of green
E7sus2
High cheekbone, kinda tall
A Gm(maj7) E
You won't think twice if you think at all
[Chorus]
A E
She like a panther on the prowl
A Gm(maj7) E
Who you gonna hoodoo now?
[Verse2]
E7sus2
Had a residence, down in Covington
A Gm(maj7) E
Knew she had a sweet tooth so I bought her some
E7sus2
Like to stay out late, dance all night along
A Gm(maj7) E
She would only make love at the break of dawn
[Chorus]
A E
Took me up so high I can't look down
A Gm(maj7) E
Who you gonna hoodoo now?
[Verse 3]
E7sus2
I checked it out with a fine tooth comb
A Gm(maj7) E
And I knew I had to leave that woman alone
E7sus2
Heard about a place, Saint Francisville
A Gm(maj7) E
A little rehabilitation to cure you illness
[Chorus]
A E
But I don't think it could help me anyhow
A Gm(maj7) E
Who you gonna hoodoo now?
