Old empty bed, springs hard as lead I feel like ol' Ned 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 would 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 would it end, ain't got a friend My only sin is in my skin What did I do to be so black and blue
