I can't help about the shape i'm in
I can't sing, i ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what i think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to

Oh well

Now, when i talked to god i knew he'd understand
He said, "stick by my side and i'll be your guiding hand
But don't ask me what i think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to"

Oh well

Would you love me tomorrow
Like you say you love me now
Would you love me, would you love me tomorrow
Like you say you love me now
When the flames of our flesh have stopped burning
And the fire of our love has cooled down

Too many times i've given too much
Baby, give me your love to me in return
Too many times i've given too much
Baby, give me your love in return
Give me your mind and your heart
But please don't leave me with a love that burns

And don't use me as your fool
'cause my heart can't stand another lie
Please don't use me, don't use me as your fool
Baby, 'cause my heart can't stand another lie
And if you can't love me tomorrow
Please leave me now in my room to cry

Baby, if you got to rock
I got to be your rockin' horse
Baby, think you'd like to roll
Maybe your diggin' it more
They're shakin' the world
When it's time to crash
But when i get home tonight
I guess i got to shake myself

You need some love
You must have the blues
Ain't but the one thing
A good man can do
He do the shake
The rattlesnake shake
Man, do the shake
Yes, and jerk away the blues
Now, jerk it

Break:

Now, i know this guy
His name is mick
Now, he don't care when he ain't got no chick
He do the shake
The rattlesnake shake
Yes, he do the shake
And jerks away the blues
Now, jerk it

Got a black magic woman
I got a black magic woman
Yes, i got a black magic woman
Got me so blind i can't see
But she's a black magic woman
And she's tryin' to make a devil out of me

Don't turn your back on me baby
Don't turn your back on me baby
Yes, don't turn your back on me baby
You're messin' around with your tricks
Don't turn your back on me baby
'cause you might just break up my magic stick

Break:

You got your spell on me baby
You got your spell on me baby
Yes, you got your spell on me baby
You're turning my heart into stone
I need you so bad, magic woman, i can't leave you alone


Yes, i need you so bad
Well, i need you darling
Yeah, i need you darling
Yes, i want you love me
I want you love me
Whoa, i want you love me, ah
Whoh, yeah
Oh, whoa, baby
Yes, i need your love
Oh, i need your love so bad
I want you love me

Shake your moneymaker
Shake your moneymaker
You got to shake your moneymaker, yeah
Shake your moneymaker
You got to shake your moneymaker
And then...

I got a gal that lives up on a hill
I got a gal that lives up on a hill
Says she'll let me roll her
But i don't believe she will

She won't shake her moneymaker
Won't shake her moneymaker
I want to roll her i keep beggin'
She won't shake her moneymaker
Won't shake her money maker
She won't...

Break:

I got a girl, but she just won't be true
I got a girl, but she just won't be true
Won't let me do the one good thing i tell her to

She won't shake her moneymaker
Won't shake her moneymaker
Won't shake her moneymaker
She won't shake her moneymaker
Won't shake her moneymaker
She won't...
