Little Girl Blue, Janis Joplin

Sit there, hm, count your fingers.
What else, what else is there to do?
Oh and I know how you feel,
I know you feel that you're through.
Oh wah wah ah sit there, hmm, count,
Ah, count your little fingers,
My unhappy oh little girl, little girl blue, yeah.

Oh sit there, oh count those raindrops
Oh, feel 'em falling down, oh honey all around you.
Honey don't you know it's time,
I feel it's time,
Somebody told you 'cause you got to know
That all you ever gonna have to count on
Or gonna wanna lean on
It's gonna feel just like those raindrops do
When they're falling down, honey, all around you.
Oh, I know you're unhappy.

Oh sit there, ah go on, go on
And count your fingers.
I don't know what else, what else
Honey have you got to do.
And I know how you feel,
And I know you ain't got no reason to go on
And I know you feel that you must be through.
Oh honey, go on and sit right back down,
I want you to count, oh count your fingers,
Ah my unhappy, my unlucky
And my little, oh, girl blue.
I know you're unhappy,
Ooh ah, honey I know,
Baby I know just how you feel.

My mom had me when she was 16 and later on had a drug addiction so i never had that normal mom and daughter relationship ... I would play this song whenever my mom got really drunk just lock myself in my room and jam this song cus it was almost like janis was there talking me through it ...

I dedicate this song to Amy Winehouse....another little girl blue, as Janis was :=(( Now they'll sing together, in Heaven.

My dear Janis, thank you for being here for me as always. I will continue to count my fingers for a while. I love you my sister,my angel.

Because someone does not like what you do does not necessarily mean that they are idiots. It seems unwise of you to say such a narrow-minded thing. I think maybe Janis herself would have disagreed with you and that your praise for her would have been ill-received as a result, though she might well have been kinder than I am, DEPENDING. For all I know YOU may be an idiot, as you provide more information leading to that perception than the 9 mouse clicks. Peace & Harmony :)

Oh Janis! thank you

[75leeloo]

she is the best ever...

[saciji]

nine idiot who cannot appreciate THE great queen of R+B in the last 60 years - really incredible delivery, phrasing - she put total body+ soul into her interpretations

MY FAVE Janis Joplin song of all time. You can tell she lived it and felt every lyric, every emotion....GENIUS who left us too soon. ~P.S.~ LOVE love love the PICTURES you added. I've never seen some of these. NICE JOB!
