Sammy Davis, Jr. - That Old Black Magic

That old black magic has me in its spell
That old black magic that you weave so well
I got those icy, 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
And down and down I go, all round I go
Like a leaf that's caught in the tide

Well, 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, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss
Can put out the fire

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

Darling, down and down I go, 'round and 'round I go
Like a leaf that's caught in the tide

Well, 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
Put out the fire

You are the lover, lover, lover, that 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 and down I go, 'round and 'round and 'round I go
In a spin, ooh, I'm loving the spin that I'm in
Ooh, under that old black magic called
You're a dirty robber
Old black magic called, oh oh, get out the car
Old black magic called, meanwhile back at the ranch

Under that old black magic called love
