[Pre-Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

You're a smooth dancer

But it's alright

Because I'm a freelancer

And you can never break me though you try

To make me think you're magical

[Verse 1]

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 going to shake free

You'd better hang on tightly

You want to 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

[Pre-Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

You're a smooth dancer

But it's alright

Because I'm a freelancer

And you can never break me though you try

To make me think you're magical

[Verse 2]

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 going to walk to freedom

You know I loved you once and I want to 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

[Pre-Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

You're a smooth dancer

But it's alright

Because I'm a freelancer

And you can never break me though you try

To make me think you're magical

[Verse 3]

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 going to shake free

You'd better hang on tightly

You know I loved you once and I want to 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

[Outro]

Baby, you can rock'n'roll

But you can never show your soul, smooth dancer

Baby, you can rock'n'roll

But you can never show your soul, smooth dancer
