- Sonny & Cher - Dark Lady Lyrics
- Uploaded by LOVE4LYRICS at Pastebin.com
- 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]
