FOUR PENNIES
- Black Girl Lyrics / with translationsBLACK GIRL
Black girl, black girl, tell me no lies,
where did you sleep last night
In the pines, in the pines,
where the sun never shines
To shiver, the whole night through
Her husband was a railroad man,
killed at the driving wheel
She found his body all crushed & torn
under the twisted steel
It caused her to weep, it caused her to moan
It caused her to lose her mind
She thought of how she lost her man,
So brave, so gentle & kind
SOLO
Now she wonders alone beneath the trees,
she’s happy to mourn her man
And the cold wind blows to chill her bones
And sea mist hangs over her head
Black girl, black girl, Where will you go?
She goes where the cold wind blows
In the pines, in the pines,
where the sun never shines
To shiver, the whole night through (TWICE)
Black girl, black girl, tell me no lies,
where did you sleep last night
In the pines, in the pines,
where the sun never shines
To shiver, the whole night through
Her husband was a railroad man,
killed at the driving wheel
She found his body all crushed & torn
under the twisted steel
It caused her to weep, it caused her to moan
It caused her to lose her mind
She thought of how she lost her man,
SOLO
Now she wonders alone beneath the trees,
she’s happy to mourn her man
And the cold wind blows to chill her bones
And sea mist hangs over her head
Black girl, black girl, Where will you go?
She goes where the cold wind blows
In the pines, in the pines,
where the sun never shines
To shiver, the whole night through (TWICE)
