Lyrics Hindoo Man - George Formby
Over
there
in
India
a
Hindoo
resides
smoking
his
hoakam
all
day
Opium
and
bits
of
rope
and
fag
ends
besides,
a
wise
man
from
the
East
Whitechapel
way.
He's
got
a
lovely
palace
on
the
beach
He's
the
Hindoo,
Howdoo,
Hoodoo,
Yoodoo
man.
He's
got
twelve
bedrooms
with
eight
wives
in
each,
He's
the
Hindoo,
Howdoo,
Hoodoo,
Yoodoo
man.
He's
got
one
wife
who
wears
a
veil,
it
covers
half
her
face,
From
her
nose
right
to
her
toes
you'll
see
nothing
else
but
space.
She'll
dance
and
waggle
her
"San
Fairy
Ann"
For
the
Hindoo,
Howdoo,
Hoodoo,
Yoodoo
man.
He
practices
his
magic
in
the
Eastern
bazaar
Slave
girls
come
under
his
spell
When
he
puts
on
the
fluence,
They
don't
know
where
they
are
He
does
Indian
tricks
and
dirty
tricks
as
well.
Now
what
he
fancies
always
does
him
good
He's
the
Hindoo,
Howdoo,
Hoodoo,
Yoodoo
man.
He
lives
on
rice,
roast
beef
and
Yorkshire
pud
He's
the
Hindoo,
Howdoo,
Hoodoo,
Yoodoo
man.
He
wears
a
dishcloth
round
his
waist,
His
favourite
wife
called
Nellie
Said,
"You'd
look
well
if
the
darned
thing
fell
You'd
have
nowt
to
cover
your...
He
said
"Who
cares,
I
could
always
wear
a
fan
I'm
a
Hindoo,
Howdoo,
Hoodoo,
Yoodoo
man.
He
looks
just
like
a
Nabob
of
renown
He's
the
Hindoo,
Howdoo,
Hoodoo,
Yoodoo
man
A
Nabob,
two
bob,
three
bob,
half
a
crown.
He's
a
Hindoo,
Howdoo,
Hoodoo,
Yoodoo
man.
A
Princess
brought
him
jewels
and
said
"For
all
your
love
I
yearn"
But
jewels
could
not
compare
with
what
He
went
and
gave
her
in
return.
He's
ninety
nine,
but
he
does
all
he
can.
For
a
Hindoo,
Howdoo,
Hoodoo,
Yoodoo
Man.
