(What did i do to be so)Black & Blue!!!
+5 -6 -7 +7
Cold, empty bed,
-5 -6 -7 +7
Springs hard as lead,
+5 -6 -7 +7
Pains in my head,
-5 -6 -7 +7
Feel like old Ned.
+6 -6 +5 +6
What did I do
+6 -6 +6 -6 -6 +5
To be so black and blue?
+5 -6 -7 +7
No joys for me,
-5 -6 -7 +7
No com-pa-ny,
+5 -6 -7 +7
Ev-en the mouse
-5 -6 -7 +7
Ran from my house,
+6 -6 +5 +6
All my life through
+6 -6 +6
I've been so
+8 -8 +7
Black and blue.
+7 -6 +7 -6
I'm white inside,
-6 +7 -6 +6 +5 +6
But that don't help my case.
+7 -6 +7 -6
Cause I can't hide
+7 +7 -8 +8 +8 +8
What is on my face, O---h
+5 -6 -7 +7
I'm so forlorn,
-5 -6 -7 +7
Life's just a thorn,
+5 -6 -7 +7
My heart is torn,
-5 -6 -7 +7
Why was I born?
+6 -6 +5 +6 +6 -6 +6
What did I do to be so
+8 -8 +7
Black and blue?
Just cause your black,
folks think you lack,
They laugh at you and scorn you to
What did i do,to be so black n blue.
When your near they laugh and sneer,
Set you aside,and your denied,
What did i do,to be so black n blue.
How sad i am,each day i feel worse,
My mark of being dark seems to be a curse.
How will it end,aint got no friend,
My only sin is in my skin,
What did i do,to be so black n blue.
