That Old Black Magic Songtext
von Louis Prima and Keely Smith with Sam Butera and the Witnesses

Old black magic has me in its spell
Old black magic that you weave so well
Those icy fingers up and down my spine
The same old witchcraft when your eyes meet mine

The same old tingle that I feel inside
And then that elevator starts its ride
Down and down I go, round and round I go
Like a leaf, caught in a tide

I should stay away but what can I do?
I hear your name and I′m a flame
Flame, burning desire
That only your kiss can put out the fire

'Cause you are the lover I have waited for
You are the mate that fate had me created for
And every time your lips meet mine

Baby!
Down and down I go, round and round I go
In a spin, loving the spin that I′m in
Under that old black magic called love


Uh, in a spin, loving the spin that I'm in
Under that old black magic called love

In a spin, loving the spin that I'm in
Under that old black magic called love

I should stay away but what can I do?
I hear your name and I′m a flame
Flame, burning desire
That only your kiss can put out the fire

For you are the lover I have waited for
You are the mate that fate had me created for
And every time your lips meet mine

Baby!
Down and down I go, round and round I go
In a spin, loving the spin that I′m in
Under that old black magic called love

Ah, in a spin, loving the spin that I'm in
Under that old black magic called love

In a spin, loving the spin that I′m in
Under that old black magic called love

Under that old black magic called love!
