About

This was written about a guy contemplating using black magic, voodoo, or “santeria” – anything he can to get back his girl.

Instrumentally, Sublime had already released a version of this song called “Lincoln Highway Dub” on the Robbin' The Hood album in 1994.

Santeria Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't practice Santeria, I ain't got no crystal ball
Well, I had a million dollars, but I'd, I'd spend it all
If I could find that jaina and that Sancho that she's found
Well, I'd pop a cap in Sancho and I'd slap her down

[Chorus]
What I really wanna know, ah, baby, mmm
What I really want to say, I can't define
Well, it's love that I need, oh
My soul will have to

[Verse 2]
Wait 'til I get back, find a jaina of my own
Daddy's gonna love one and all
I feel the break, feel the break, feel the break, and I got' live it up
Oh, yeah, ah-huh, well, I swear that I

[Chorus]
What I really wanna know, ah, baby
What I really want to say, I can't define
That love, make it go

Mmm, what I really wanna say, ah, baby
What I really wanna say is, "I've got mine
And I'll make it, oh yes, I'm comin' up"
Tell Sanchito that

[Verse 3]
If he knows what is good for him, he best go run and hide
Daddy's got a new .45

Believe me when I say that I got something for his punk ass

[Chorus]
What I really wanna know, my baby
Ooh, what I really wanna say is, "There's just one"
Way back, and I'll make it, oh yeah I'm coming up
My soul will have to wait yeah

[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
