Old empty bed, springs all of lead Feel like old Ned, wish I was dead All my life through I've been so black and blue? Even the mouse ran from my house They laugh at you and scorn you too What did I do then 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?
