Sister Kate
She came too late
Brown-skinned woman
She was my fate
She got island magic
In her eyes
If I fell in love
I wouldn't be surprised
I'd been waitin'
Down at the bar
For a blonde-haired lady
I'd met the day before
When this natural woman
She cam our of the night
With her black eyes shining
She was out of sight
[CHORUS]
Whoa ho, ho
Oh, my island woman
My island woman, I see
Whoa ho, ho
Oh, my island woman
My island woman
For me
She started dancin'
Out on the floor
I'd never seen no woman
Move like that before
Well, I may be right
And I may be wrong
But her sweet black magic
Made me come along
[Repeat CHORUS]
When she stopped dancin'
She sat on my right
And I couldn't stop starin' at her
She's warm and gentle
Like as summer's night
On a starry night just waitin' for love
(Instrumental break)
When she stopped dancin'
She sat on my right
And I couldn't stop starin' at her
She's warm and gentle
Like as summer's night
On a starry night just waitin' for love
[Repeat CHORUS to fade]

Whoa ho, ho
Oh, my island woman

Whoa ho, ho
Oh, my island woman
