I’ll take you dancin’ in the country, Levi’s in them low beams  
Spin you in some red dirt, sweep you off of both feet  
Out here where the sun sets, Silverado backbeat  
You’ll never wanna go home and never wanna not be  
Dancin’ in the country  
Dancin’ in the country

Here I go and I don’t know why  
I fell so ceaselessly  
Could it be he’s taking over me

I’m dancing barefoot  
Heading for a spin  
Some strange music draws me in  
Makes me come on like some heroine

You’re sailing softly through the sun  
In a broken stone age dawn  
You fly so high

I get a strange magic  
Oh, what a strange magic  
Oh, it’s a strange magic  
Got a strange magic  
Got a strange magic

She’s a witch of trouble in electric blue  
In her own mad mind she’s in love with you  
With you  
Now what you gonna do?  
Strange brew  
Kill what’s inside of you

She held me spellbound in the night (woo-ooh)  
Dancing shadows and firelight  
Crazy laughter in another room (woo-ooh)  
And she drove herself to madness with a silver spoon

Woo-hoo, witchy woman  
See how high she flies  
Woo-hoo, witchy woman  
She got the moon in her eye

'Cause it’s witchcraft  
Wicked witchcraft  
And although I know it’s strictly taboo  
When you arouse the need in me  
My heart says, “Yes, indeed” in me  
Proceed with what your leading me to

I put a spell on you, because you’re mine  
You better stop the thing that you’re doin’  
I said, Watch out, I ain’t lyin’, yeah  
I ain’t gonna take none of your, foolin’ around  
I ain’t gonna take none of your, puttin’ me down  
I put a spell on you because you’re mine, all right

You can’t hide your lyin’ eyes  
And your smile is a thin disguise  
I thought by now you’d realize  
There ain’t no way to hide your lyin’ eyes

I see the look of evil in your eyes  
You’ve been filling me all full of lies  
The morrow will not change your shameful deed  
You will bear someone else’s fertile seed  
Evil woman don’t play your games with me  
Evil woman don’t play your games with me

Be sure it’s true when you say “I Love You”  
It’s a sin to tell a lie  
Many a heart has been broken  
Just because these words were spoken  
I Love You, yes, I do, I Love You  
It you turn me down, I’ll cry

Many a tear has to fall but it’s all in the game

If he brings you happiness  
Then I wish you all the best  
It’s your happiness that matters most of all  
But if he ever breaks your heart  
If the teardrops ever start  
I’ll be there before the next teardrop falls

These clouds stick to the sky  
Like a floating question, “Why?”  
They linger there to die  
They don’t know where they’re going and, my friend, neither do I

I don’t know where I’m going,  
Don’t know where I’ve been.  
'Cause I haven’t seen my baby,  
Since I don’t know when.

I’m walking down that long road,  
With a smile up on my face.  
I’m broken-hearted,  
But you won’t see a trace.

Now if I appear to be carefree  
It’s only to camouflage my sadness  
In order to shield my pride, I try

You can tell a dirty story  
In the old conservatory  
But don’t go in the basement!

You can make a scene  
On the mezzanine  
But don’t go in the basement!
