Miss Celie's Blues (Sister) - From "The Color Purple" Soundtrack

Sister
You've been on my mind
Oh, sister, we're two of a kind
So sister
I'm keepin' my eyes on you

I betcha think
I don't know nothin'
But singin' the blues
Oh, sister, have I got news for you
I'm somethin'
I hope you think
That you're somethin' too

Oh, Scufflin'
I been up that lonesome road
And I seen a lot of suns goin' down
Oh, but trust me
No low-life's gonna run me around

So let me tell you somethin' sister
Remember your name
No twister
Gonna steal your stuff away
My sister
We sure ain't got a whole lot of time
So shake your shimmy
Sister
'Cause honey the 'shug
Is feelin' fine
