THAT OLD BLACK MAGIC
Words by Johnny Mercer
A Mickey McBride Arrangement
Verse 1
THAT OLD BLACK MAGIC HAS ME IN IT’S SPELL,
THAT OLD BLACK MAGIC THAT I KNOW SO WELL,
THOSE ICY FINGERS UP AND DOWN MY SPINE,
THE SAME OLD WITCHCRAFT WHEN YOUR EYES MEET MINE,
Verse 2
THE SAME OLD TINGLE THAT I FEEL INSIDE,
AND THEN THAT ELEVATOR STARTS ITS RIDE,
AND DOWN AND DOWN I GO,
‘ROUND AND ‘ROUND I GO,
LIKE A LEAF THAT’S CAUGHT IN THE TIDE,
Bridge
I SHOULD STAY AWAY BUT WHAT CAN I DO,
I HEAR YOUR NAME AND I’M AFLAME,
AFLAME WITH SUCH A BURNING DESIRE,
THAT ONLY YOUR KISS CAN PUT OUT THE FIRE,
Verse 3
FOR YOU’RE THE LOVER I HAVE WAITED FOR,
THE MATE THAT FATE HAD ME CREATED FOR,
AND EV’RY TIME YOUR LIPS MEET MINE,
DARLING, DOWN AND DOWN I GO,
‘ROUND AND ‘ROUND I GO,
IN A SPIN, LOVING THE SPIN I’M IN,
UNDER THAT OLD BLACK MAGIC CALLED LOVE!
(Repeat Entire Chorus)
