black girl, black girl, don´t you lie to me
tell me where did you sleep last night?
in the pines, in the pines
where the sun never shines
and i shivered the whole night long.

tell me where did you get that pretty little dress
and those shoes that you wear so fine?
i got my dress from a railroad man
and my shoes from a driver deep in the mine.

black girl, black girl, don´t lie to me
tell me where did you sleep last night?
in the pines, in the pines
where the sun never shines
and i shivered the whole night long.
