My recollection of the "Born on the Bayou (CCR)" lyrics is that the word is Voodoo, which is a Haitian/Cajun southern and swampy word for evil magic. Voodoo has many pronunciations and spellings including hoodoo.
Hoodoo is a geologic term for the rock stacks, as seen in this picture, in the US desert southwest.
