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
