BLACK AND BLUE
Cold empty bed springs our heart has lead
Pains in my head feel like old Ned
Hay what did I do
To be so black and blue
No joys for me no company
Even a mouse seems to run from my house
And all my life through I've been black and blue
Hay now I am white when I'm deep inside you baby that don't help my case
Honey just because I can't hide what is on my face
I'm so forlorn
My heart is torn
Life is a thorn oh why was I born
What did I do to be so black and blue
Hay now I am white when I'm deep inside you baby that don't help my case
Honey just because I can't hide what is on my face
Lordy listen to me I'm so forlorn
My heart is torn
Life is a thorn oh why was I born
Hay what did I do to be so black and blue
Pains in my head feel like old Ned
Hay what did I do
To be so black and blue
No joys for me no company
Even a mouse seems to run from my house
And all my life through I've been black and blue
Hay now I am white when I'm deep inside you baby that don't help my case
Honey just because I can't hide what is on my face
I'm so forlorn
My heart is torn
Life is a thorn oh why was I born
What did I do to be so black and blue
Hay now I am white when I'm deep inside you baby that don't help my case
Honey just because I can't hide what is on my face
Lordy listen to me I'm so forlorn
My heart is torn
Life is a thorn oh why was I born
Hay what did I do to be so black and blue
