Black Girl - Marianne Faithfull

Black girl, black girl, don’t you lie to me Tell me where did you sleep last night?

In the pines, in the pines

Where the sun never shines

And I shivered the whole night long.

Tell me where did you get that pretty little dress

And those shoes that you wear so fine?

I got my dress from a railroad man

And my shoes from a driver deep in the mine.

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 shines

And I shivered the whole night long.
