(What Did I Do to Be So) Black and Blue lyrics

[Verse 1]
Cold empty bed, springs hard as lead
Feel like Old Ned, wish I was dead
All my life through, I’ve been so black and blue

[Verse 2]
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?

[Bridge]
I'm white inside but that don't help my case
'Cause I can't hide what is in my face

[Verse 3]
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?
