Eartha Kitt - I'd Rather Be Burned As A Witch Lyrics






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
Wellll
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
Welllll
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
Wellll
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
Wellll
Let me tell you brother
I’d rather be burned as a witch,
than never be burned at all.

    Apparently she had a very rough childhood. Somebody interviewed her on TV and asked her what shocked her the most in life. She answered: "NOTHING shocks me"... that was precious.

  8. M.... S....

    A bad bitch that was dripping with charm and elegance

  9. G.... ....

    All the glamorous artistic women were Lesbians in the wrong era, but today this fact is well understood. The BEST women on stage and cam are NOT the humdrum heterosexual carpet cleaner. ...Sad that fame made it so impossible to be free. But take heart, cuz racist Freemasons and all their arse-kissers live lives of dangerous bloodshed and horror TODAYYYY!!!! Yayyyyy!!!! LIFE IS SHORT!!! ...blood in da gutter, cott on da WALL!!! Ouija gets them ALL smalll!!!

    M.... ....

    ​@Zend Avesta Fame is a cage...what can I say?! ...don't get famous, or you'll be loosing your privacy! ...just like Eartha Kitt. No dates - no one-night-stands, no make-up brushup in a public toilet....Don't fall for Freemason offers!

  43. A.... B....

    Not my favorite Catwoman but she definitely has an amazing voice ❤️

  44. L.... E....

    Before you all get carried away with the firewood remember most witches were hung by the neck.

  45. G.... C....

    this is a pretty suggestive song for its day. love it.

  46. M.... J....

    Looooooveeee it😹😹😹

  47. G.... C....

    Listen to this at .75x speed it’s amazing ❤️

  48. p.... ....

    Even though I am a guy, this song is my spirit animal. Eartha was always my influence. I wish I met her, I would have so much to talk with her, since I respect her political and social views. Once in High-School, we had a project about the celebrity that inspires us and their legacy. I chose to write about Eartha. Even on music class, I sang "I'd rather be burned as a witch", since I was the class-misfit due to my interests in magic, art etc. So, this song is my favorite from Eartha, the second one is "I don't care".

  49. A.... D....

    Thank you ernest scared stupid for introducing me to this incredible entertainer

  50. A.... N....

    As an eclectic Pagan, I just have to say, this HAS to become a staple in our community. It's wonderfully feisty and can speak to the goddess in us all--and yes, men have an inner divine feminine, too--on several levels. I love it. Eartha was indeed a witch, a wise soul who didn't let the threat of society's fire scare her. In fact, on many occasion, she walked into it proudly. She's an inspiration to everyone, Pagan or otherwise. Eartha, great lady, wise crone, wherever your soul is now, I hope it's at peace. Blessed be. )O(

  52. A.... i....

    Proud pagan , proud witch who’s ancestors didn’t burn

  53. B.... B....

    I don't always come here, but when I do, I replay it for 57 times.

  54. A.... J....

    She is so terrible that I not can hearing her. I get back to my Vaugn De Leath playlist. I never on my life hear Eartha Kitt again. I really mean NEVER

  55. R.... s....

    c.... ....

    LittleMissLounge that’s too bad because this has got to be one of my favorite songs by her

  57. K.... K....

    So did they try to pass her off as white on album covers for the sweet sales? lol

    K.... K....

    Kissy, Kissy! Nah, the album is a compilation and the art is just some random pulp art not meant to be any specific singer.

  58. S.... J....

    Pleasd watch this

  89. A.... W....

    It will be 9 years with out the late grrrrrreat Eartha Kitt this Christmas Day R.I.P Eartha Kitt we miss you a whole lot!

    A.... W....

    Reports of some peoples' death I believe are greatly exaggerated . I am sure I have had contact with this lady in the last six years , straight out of the plastic surgeons'

  90. K.... D....

    But if you forget to come back for Madam Zeroni, you and your family will be cursed for ever and eternity.

    K.... D....

    All she wanted was to be carried up a mountain to drink from a stream! Elya was such a schmuck lol.

  91. U.... S....

    Eartha Kitt was such an amazing human being,she got abuse from everywhere she went.black people,white people,she did not fit in anywhere and was treated like s##t.She is just one hell of an amazing survivor,it is hard to believe that she could come through so much and be able to sing and entertain the way she did.One hell of a  human being.I love her.

    U.... S....

    She really was. A lot of people mostly know her as Catwoman, Yzma, or Madame Zeroni—which is great! She was a wonderful character actress. However, she was also a fervent activist. Her anti-war views made her very unpopular during the Vietnam era and even put her under CIA surveillance. She also later became a fierce advocate for LGBT rights. One hell of a human being indeed! And one more people need to know about.

    U.... S....

    Absolutely,I'm glad you are posting her work.I had absolutely no idea about her life story until recently,thanks to YT.I saw that video of her laughing wildy when talking about compromises in relationships and then I binged watched her other interviews and I was so amazed and moved by what a woman she is,incredible human being and yes you are right more people need to know about her.She was not just a great entertainer which would have been enough in itself but her activism and her world view is one I would subscribe to completely.I love everything she stands for and her heart and mind and sheer will to survive is something people need to hear.There are very few the likes of Eartha Kitt,she is a rare diamond indeed.They need to make a movie or something of her life.

    U.... S....

    @LittleMissLounge eww lost her morals later on .

  92. I.... D....

    I think of myself more as a soccerress enchantress... but long live my witchy sisters!!!

  93. S.... E....

    🔥🔥🔥💥💯

  94. O.... O....

    Witch is a strong independent women who always been misunderstod by her community

    O.... O....

    @blackwings bluebox221B don't you know that usually this is the other less succesfull women that spreads rumors about "that witch that gain all thanks to her witchcraft"?

    O.... O....

    @Dankopaladin True. I didn't about it then. Thanks for correcting me

    O.... O....

    Orca O you obviously know nothing about the occult, how sad so many of you say this nonsense and so confidently.

    O.... O....

    They are more capable than wizards/warlocks?

    O.... O....

    did someone delete a comment of mine? Can't see mine, can't see any likes or dislike on this comment or subcomments.

    No clue why youtube gave me an update about someone replying on this.

  95. A.... a....

    Seriously wtf is with the objectifying album cover?

    A.... a....

    Alyssa algorythm how stupid are you?

    A.... a....

    That is a serious question. You are fucking dumb!

    A.... a....

    Songs about pure lustful sexuality have an album cover to match. There's nothing wrong with celebrating this aspect of ourselves and putting ourselves out there for admiration.
    Most thinking humans can remember there's another thinking human behind the Bikini. The problem only comes when there are people who can't do that (and they'd see their entitlement whatever their "object of desire" was wearing anyway).

    A.... a....

    What kind of question is the that 🤔
