Black Man Blues by Edmonia Henderson Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Blacker the berry, sweeter the juice
Blacker the berry, sweeter the juice
Get yourself a black man and turn that yellow a-loose
[Verse 2]
If you wanna have some loving when you're feeling blue
Wanna have some loving when you're feeling blue
Get yourself a jet black man, he knows just what to do
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Some like her yellow, some like teasin' brown
Some like her yellow, some like teasin' brown
Black will stick by you when your yellow turns you down
[Verse 4]
Yellow men are evil, brown-skin men are worse
Yellow men are evil, brown-skin men are worse
Get myself a jet black man and play safety first
Blacker the berry, sweeter the juice
Blacker the berry, sweeter the juice
Get yourself a black man and turn that yellow a-loose
[Verse 2]
If you wanna have some loving when you're feeling blue
Wanna have some loving when you're feeling blue
Get yourself a jet black man, he knows just what to do
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Some like her yellow, some like teasin' brown
Some like her yellow, some like teasin' brown
Black will stick by you when your yellow turns you down
[Verse 4]
Yellow men are evil, brown-skin men are worse
Yellow men are evil, brown-skin men are worse
Get myself a jet black man and play safety first
