Miss Celie's Blues

Sister, you’ve been on my mind
Sister, we’re two of a kind
So sister, I’m keepin’ my eyes on you
I bet you think I don’t know nothin’

But singin’ the blues
Oh sister, have I got news for you
I’m somethin’
I hope you think that you’re somethin’ too

Scufflin’, I been up that lomesone road
And I seen a lot of suns goin’ down
Oh, but trust me
No low life’s gonna run me around

So let me tell you somethin’ sister
Remember your name
No twister, gonna steal your stuff away
My sister

Sho’ ain’t got a whole lot of time
So shake you shimmy,
Sister
‘Cause honey I sure is feelin’ time
