Lyrics

Black suede, don't mean you're good for me Black suede, just brings your mystery I want to be inside of you But you're black and I don't know what to do You're a smooth dancer But it's alright Cos I'm a freelancer And you can never break me though you try To make me think you're magical Baby, you're the one who can never see the sun Because it don't shine nightly Don't you look at me because I'm gonna shake free You'd better hang on tightly You wanna rule the world, but you're acting like a girl Who's got a false pregnancy You've swollen up inside with nothing but your pride And yet you keep on dancing Black suede, don't waste your time on me Black suede, I sense your mockery I tried to go along with you But you're black and I know just what to do You're a smooth dancer But it's alright Cos I'm a freelancer And you can never break me though you try To make me think you're magical I think you're crazy, your two-timing ways They don't bother me none You'd better do it right because one day or night I'm gonna walk to freedom You know I loved you once and I wanna love again But you don't give nothing You can see it in my eyes so you've got to realize Baby, I ain't bluffing Black suede, don't waste your time on me Black suede, don't bring me misery I tried to be inside of you But you're black and now I know what to do You're a smooth dancer But it's alright Cos I'm a freelancer And I can tell you're faking though you try To make me think you're magical Baby, you're the one who can never see the sun Bacause it don't shine nightly Don't you look at me because I'm gonna shake free You'd better hang on tightly You know I loved you once and I wanna love again But you don't give nothing You can see it in my eyes so you've got to realize Baby, I ain't bluffing Baby, you can rock'n'roll But you can never show your soul, smooth dancer
