Dark Lady Sözleri

The fortune queen of New Orleans

Was brushing her cat in her black limousine

On the back seat were scratches

From the marks of men her fortune she had won

Couldn't see through the tinted glass

She said, "Home James" and he hit the gas

I followed her to some darkened room

She took my money, she said, "I'll be with you soon"

CHORUS:

Dark lady laughed and danced

And lit the candles one by one

Danced to her gypsy music

Till her brew was done

Dark lady played black magic

Till the clock struck on the twelve

She told me more about me

Than I knew myself

She dealt two cards, a queen and a three

And mumbled some words

That were so strange to me

Then she turned up a two-eyed jack

My eyes saw red but the card

Still stayed black

She said the man you love is secretly true

To someone else who is very close to you

My advice is that you leave this place

Never come back and forget you ever saw my face

Chorus

So I ran home and crawled in my bed

I couldn't sleep because of all the things she said

Then I remembered her strange perfume

And how I smelled it once in my own room

So I sneaked back and caught her with my man

Laughing and kissing till they saw the gun in my hand

The next thing I knew they were dead on the floor

Dark lady would never turn a card up anymore

Chorus
