Black And Blue (Album Version) - Ethel Waters[00:00:00]
Written by:A. Razaf/Fats Waller/H. Brooks/Frank Walker[00:00:02]
Out in the street[00:00:16]
Shufflin' feet[00:00:18]
Couples passin' two by two[00:00:19]
And here am I[00:00:22]
Left high and dry[00:00:24]
Black and 'cause I'm black I'm blue[00:00:25]
All the raised fellers[00:00:28]
Crave high yellow[00:00:30]
Gentlemen prefer them light[00:00:32]
I'm just another spade[00:00:34]
Who can't make the grade[00:00:36]
Looka like there's nothing but dark days in sight[00:00:38]
With a cold empty bed[00:00:42]
Springs hard as lead[00:00:44]
Pains in my head and I feel like old ned[00:00:46]
What did I do[00:00:50]
To be so black and blue[00:00:52]
No joys for me[00:00:58]
No company[00:01:01]
Even the mouse ran from my house[00:01:03]
All my life through[00:01:07]
I've been so black and blue[00:01:09]
I'm white[00:01:15]
But it's inside[00:01:17]
So that don't help my case[00:01:19]
'Cause I[00:01:23]
Can't hide[00:01:25]
Just what is on my face oh[00:01:27]
Sad and forlorn[00:01:33]
Life's just a thorn[00:01:35]
My heart is torn oh why was I born[00:01:37]
What did I do[00:01:42]
To be so black and blue[00:01:44]
Just 'cause you're black[00:01:50]
Boys think you lack[00:01:52]
They laugh at you and scorn you too[00:01:54]
What did I do[00:01:59]
To be so black and blue[00:02:01]
When I drove near[00:02:07]
They laugh and sneer[00:02:09]
I'm set aside[00:02:11]
Always denied[00:02:12]
All my life through[00:02:15]
I've been so black and blue[00:02:17]
How sad[00:02:23]
I am[00:02:25]
And each day the situation gets worse[00:02:27]
My Mark[00:02:31]
Of ham[00:02:33]
Seems to be a curse oh[00:02:35]
How will it end[00:02:41]
Can't got a boyfriend[00:02:44]
Yet my only sin[00:02:46]
Lies in my skin[00:02:48]
What did I do[00:02:51]
To be so black and blue[00:02:53]
