lyrics

BLACK GIRL

Black Girl
Tell me where did you sleep?
Black Girl
Tell me where did you sleep?
Black Girl
Where did you go?

Black Girl
Where did you go?
I go where the cold wind blows
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I shivered the whole night through

Well I took my baby
Where the darkness hides
And the darkness it looked on me
I put her down, put her down
Watched my baby down
Now I, I set her free

Oh Black Girl, Black Girl
Don't you lie to me
Tell me where, where did you sleep last night?
Oh in the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I shivered the whole night through

Black Girl, Black Girl
Where did you go?
Well I go where the cold wind blows
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I shivered the whole night through
