Black and Blue

Harry Brooks, Andy Razaf, Fats Waller

Cold empty bed
Springs hard as lead
Feel like old Ned
Wished I was dead
All my life through
I've been so black and blue

Even the mouse
Ran from my house
They laughed at you
And scorned you, too
What did I do, babe
To be so black and blue?

I'm white inside
But that don't help my case
Cause it 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, babe
To be so black and blue?
