lyrics

Dance with me, Magdolna
Under the stars
You don't know how lucky
Both you and I are
Just don't tell your sisters
They know me quite well
Oh Magdolna
I'm under your spell

When I met Elizabeth
You were so young
Went down to the ballroom
We swayed and we swung
We got back at dawn
But you'd stayed up as well
Magdolna, I'm under your spell
Sweet Magdolna, I'm under your spell

And it's been a long way down
To the end of the cobblestone road that we're on
And there's no going back half a lifetime
The dance and that night
I'll put all this right
It was your soul I promised to keep
Sweet Magdolna, don't fall asleep
Don't fall asleep

I picked up Anne
At a quarter past five
You were there at the door
Knowing I would arrive
I held Annie close
But I just couldn't tell her
I was under Sweet Magdolna's spell
I was under Sweet Magdolna's spell

And it's been a long way down
To the end of the cobblestone road that we're on
And there's no going back half a lifetime
The dance and that night
We'll put all this right
It was your soul I promised to keep
Sweet Magdolna, don't fall asleep
Don't fall asleep
Don't fall asleep
Magdolna, don't fall asleep
Don't fall asleep

Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

Ba-dum, ba-dum
Ba-dum, ba-dum
Ba-da-da-da-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum
Ba-da-da-da-dum, ba-dum, ba-dum
Ba-dum, ba-dum
Ba-dum, ba-dum

about

A Fistful of Sugar image

A Fistful of Sugar Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Centered around strong, lush vocal harmonies and driving "new folk" instrumentals, AFOS is a distinctly modern sound that resonates with echoes of hot jazz, 'old-timey' country, gypsy, and other roots musics. AFOS has wowed audiences with their powerful, genre-bending performances that range from the syrupy-sweet to the gritty and swampy. ... more
