Quincy Jones - The Color Purple (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

Miss Celie's Blues (Sister)

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

I betcha think I don't know nothin'
But singin' the blues, oh, sister
Have I got news for you, I'm something
I hope you think that you're something too

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

So let me tell you something, sister
Remember your name, no twister
Gonna steal your stuff away, my sister
We sure ain't got a whole lot of time

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

So let me tell you something, 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
