Lyrics

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 shine I will shiver the whole night through Black girl, black girl, where will you go? I'm going where the cold wind blows In the pines, in the pines, where the sun never shine 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 shine I will shiver the whole night through My husband was a railroad man Killed a mile and a half from here His head was found in a drivers wheel And his body haven't ever been found Black girl, black girl, where will you go? I'm going where the cold wind blows You called me weak, and you called me the most You called me to bring me my home
