Lyrics
Got a black magic woman
Expressing possession of a woman with mystical or captivating qualities
Got a black magic woman
Reiteration of having a woman with magical and enchanting attributes
I've got a black magic woman
Emphasizing the possession of a woman with mysterious and alluring characteristics
Got me so blind I can't see
Describing the intense effect of the woman's magic, causing a metaphorical blindness
That she's a black magic woman
Acknowledging the woman as possessing magical or bewitching qualities
She's trying to make a devil out of me
Indicating that the woman is attempting to lead the speaker astray or towards negative influences
Don't turn your back on me, baby
Cautioning the woman not to ignore or betray the speaker
Don't turn your back on me, baby
Repeating the warning against turning away from the speaker
Yes, don't turn your back on me, baby
Emphasizing the plea for the woman not to disregard the speaker
Stop messing 'round with your tricks
Advising the woman to stop engaging in deceitful or manipulative behavior
Don't turn your back on me, baby
Reiterating the plea for the woman not to turn away, suggesting potential consequences
You just might pick up my magic sticks
Suggesting that neglecting the warning might lead to unintended consequences or difficulties
You got your spell on me, baby
Acknowledging the woman's influence over the speaker, possibly in a romantic or emotional context
You got your spell on me, baby
Repeating the acknowledgment of the woman's spellbinding effect on the speaker
Yes, you got your spell on me, baby
Emphasizing the impact of the woman's enchantment, potentially causing emotional numbness
Turnin' my heart into stone
Describing the woman's magic as turning the speaker's heart cold or unfeeling
I need you so bad
Expressing a strong emotional need or desire for the woman despite potential negative consequences
Magic woman I can't leave you alone
Acknowledging the difficulty of distancing oneself from the enchanting woman
