I started work on this song in 1989. I finally have a version of it I'm happy with. I hope you enjoy my take on the woman you don't want to fall in love with.
Verse 1
Black Magic Lady, you cast your spell
A cold hearted woman, lordy I can tell
She's a hard lovin woman, and she can treat you right
She make love to you boy, all through the night
Chorus
She's a Black Magic Lady, you know she weaves a spell
Better treat her right boy, or she'll send your soul to hell
Black Magic Lady, Black Magic Lady,
Verse 2
Black Magic Lady, she was made to hold
she can set you on fire, or she can turn you cold
If you want her to love you, you better treat her right
Or she'll steal your soul away, and hide it in the night
Chorus
She's a Black Hearted Lady, ya know she weaves a spell
Oh Black magic, ya don't treat her right she'll send you to hell
Tag lines
Now Black Magic Lady, oh so fine
Black Magic lady, treat you so fine
Black Magic Lady I wish she were mine
