4 BLACK MAGIC WOMAN / GYPSY QUEEN

BLACK MAGIC WOMAN

'Got a black magic woman,
'got a black magic woman
I've got a black magic woman,
'got me so blind I can't see
That she's a black magic woman,
she's try'n to make a devil out of me.

Turn your back on me baby,
turn your back on me baby.
Yes, don't turn your back on me baby,
Stop messin' 'round with your tricks.
Don't turn your back on me, baby,
you just might pick up my magic sticks

'Got your spell on me baby,
'got your spell on me baby
Yes, you got your spell on me baby,
turning my heart into stone
I need you so bad, magic woman,
I can't leave you alone

GYPSY QUEEN

From nowhere
Through a caravan
Around the campfire light
A lovely woman in motion
With hair as dark as night
Her eyes were like that
Of a cat in the dark
They hypnotize me with love

She was a gypsy woman
She was a gypsy woman

She danced around and round
To a guitar melody
From the fire her face
Was all aglow
How she enchanted me
Oh how I’d like to hold her near
And kiss and forever whisper in her ear

I love you gypsy woman

All through the caravan
She was dancing with all the men
Waiting for the rising sun
Everyone was having fun

I hate to see the lady go
Knowing she’ll never know
That I love her

That I love her

She danced around and round
To a guitar melody
From the fire her face
Was all aglow
How she enchanted me
Oh how I’d like to hold her near
And kiss and forever whisper in her ear

GYPSY QUUEN

From nowhere
Through a caravan
Around the campfire light
A lovely woman in motion
With hair as dark as night
Her eyes were like that
Of a cat in the dark
They hypnotize me with love

She was a gypsy woman
She was a gypsy woman

She danced around and round
To a guitar melody
From the fire her face
Was all aglow
How she enchanted me
Oh how I’d like to hold her near
And kiss and forever whisper in her ear

I love you gypsy woman

All through the caravan
She was dancing with all the men
Waiting for the rising sun
Everyone was having fun

I hate to see the lady go
Knowing she’ll never know
That I love her

That I love her

She danced around and round
To a guitar melody
From the fire her face
Was all aglow
How she enchanted me
Oh how I’d like to hold her near
And kiss and forever whisper in her ear
