Lead Belly - Lead Belly: The Smithsonian Folkways Collection

Black Girl (Where Did You Sleep Last Night)

Black girl
Black girl
Don't lie to me
Tell me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
In the pines
In the pines
Where sun never shines
I shivered the whole night through
Black girl
Black girl
Where will you go
I'm goin' where the cold wind blows
In the pines
In the pines
Where the sun never shines
I will shiver the whole night through
Black girl
Black girl
Don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
In the pines
In the pines
Where the sun never shines
I shivered the whole night through
My husband was a railroad man
Killed a mile and a half from here
His head was found in the drivers wheel
And his body hasn't been found
Black girl
Black girl
Where will you go
I'm goin' where the cold wind blows
You called me weak
And you called me the most
You called Rita
Bring me back home
