Lyrics
Raven hair and ruby lipsSparks fly from her fingertips Echoed voices in the night She’s a restless spirit on an endless flightWoo-hoo, witchy womanSee how high she flies Woo-hoo, witchy woman She got the moon in her eyeShe 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 spoonWoo-hoo, witchy womanSee how high she flies Woo-hoo, witchy woman She got the moon in her eyeAh, oh, ah-ah (aah-ah)Ah, oh, ah-ah (aah-ah) Ah, oh, ah-ah Ah, oh, ah-ah (aah-ah) Ah, oh, ah-ah (aah-ah) Ah, oh, ah-ahWell, I know you want a lover, let me tell you, brotherShe’s been sleeping in the Devil’s bed And there’s some rumors going ’round, someone’s underground She can rock you in the nighttime ’til your skin turns redWoo-hoo, witchy womanSee how high she flies Woo-hoo, witchy woman She got the moon in her eye
