I'd Rather Be Burned As A Witch Songtext
von Eartha Kitt

They say that I′m a witch
And that I weave a spell
Well, I use my eyes to invite you
My lips to delight you
And all the charms of the feminine wiles to excite you

They say that I'm a witch
And that I weave a spell
Well, I′ll be a son of a
I don't know what
Well, let me tell you brother
I'd rather be burned as a witch than never be burned at all

I use my songs to entice you
With curses advise you
And all of my bags of tricks
To choose and rise you


They say that I′m a witch
And that I weave a spell
Well, I′ll be a son of a-
I don't know what
Well, let me tell you brother
I′d rather be burned as a witch than never be burned at all

You want a gal who will be your pal
Who would never look at another
Who would be good and true
And take care of you?
Sorry, you want another
I use my charms to undo you
My arms to unglue you
And all of the hex of the weaker sex to voodoo you

Yes, they say that I'm a witch
And that I weave a spell
Well, I′ll be a son of a-
I don't know what
Well, let me tell you brother
I′d rather be burned as a witch than never be burned at all


If you want a love
Who's a turtle-dove
Who will bring you life's little joys
Who is sweet and shy
With a gentle eye
I′ll take them in with the boys

I use my eyes to invite you
My lips to delight you
And you never can tell
When I use my teeth to bite you

They say that I′m a witch
And that I weave a spell
Well, I'll be a son of a-
I don′t know what
Well, let me tell you brother
I'd rather be burned as a witch than never be burned at all
