I Put A Spell On You

Lyrics: Screaming Jay Hawkins
Music: Screaming Jay Hawkins

Played by Phil Lesh & Friends at Halloween 2007.

Pigpen sang what I assume is a fragment of this song at one of the Acid Tests, probably on 8 January 1966 at the Fillmore. All that is on known recordings is Pigpen singing "I'm gonna put a spell on you" several times.

I put a spell on you
Because you're mine

Stop the things you do
I ain't lyin'

I ain't gonna take your fooling around
I ain't gonna take your put-me-down
I put a spell on you
Because you're mine

I can't stand it here
No more running round
I can't stand
To put you down
I put a spell on you
Because you're mine
