Lyrics (What Did I Do To Be So) Black & Blue - Jack Teagarden

(What Did I Do To Be So) Black & Blue

Cold empty bed, springs hard as lead
Feels like ol' Ned wished I was dead
What did I do to be so black and blue
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
I’m white inside but that don’t help my case
'Cause I can’t hide what is in my face
How would it end, ain’t got a friend
My only sin is in my skin
What did I do to be so black and blue
How would it end, ain’t got a friend
My only sin is in my skin
What did I do to be so black and blue
