Old empty bed
Springs all of lead
feel like old *ed
wished I was dead
What did I do
to be so black
and blue?

Even the mouse
ran from my house
They laugh at you
and scorn you too
What did I do
to be so black
and blue?

I'm white,
Inside
But that don't help my case
Cause I can't hide
What is in my face
How will it end
Ain't got a friend
My only sin
is in my skin
What did I do
to be so black
and blue?

How will it end
Aint got a friend
My only sin
Is in my skin
What did I do
To be so black and blue?
