The theme for today’s Song Lyric Sunday is “magic” and what better song to illustrate the theme than Carlos Santana’s “Black Magic Woman” from 1970. What a song!
“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 tryin’ to make a devil out of me
Don’t turn your back on me, baby
Don’t turn your back on me, baby
Yes, don’t turn your back on me baby
Stop messin’ around 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
Yes! That intro music just gets it going! Love it! 🙂
I’ve only heard a few Santana songs, but I have to admit that I thought this one was absolutely brilliant! It’s so sultry, sexy and rather magical. Thanks so much for sharing!
Love this song. I remember when Fleetwood Mac came out with it, but Santana made it one to remember forever!
Fleetwood Mac? REALLY? I didn’t know that! All I remember is Santana and man, do I remember! 🙂
One of THE BEST cover songs ever!
