"In The Pines" Lyrics:

Black girl, black Girl, dont lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night?
In the pines, In the pines, Where the sun never shine
I shivered the whole night through.

Black girl, black girl, where will you go
Im going where the cold wind blows
In the pines, In the pines, Where the sun never shine
I will shiver the whole night through.

Black girl, black Girl, dont lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night?
In the pines, In the pines, Where the sun never shine
I shivered the whole night through.

My Husband was a Railroad man
Killed a mile and a half from here
His head, was found, In a drivers wheel
And his body hasn't never been found.

Black girl, black girl, where will you go
Im going where the cold wind blows
You called me weak, and you called me the most
You called rita, bring me back home.

let's make the top comment about how awesome she is and not gender.

[jcastorina]

If this was a Ledbelly cover, you'd sing it correctly as 'Black Girl'. But alas, you covered Nirvana's version. Excellent voice nonetheless!

[barbwirerope]

Bless your heart...you must be a retard.

[Maritza de jesus Rivera]

black girl or my girl?  how sing she?

[Carlos Mendez]

Sacrilege

[Rxsouthern]

That's a female?

[emgamera]

crap. i meant mark lanegan. nirvana was covering the mark lanegan version.

[emgamera]

if you're going to nitpick music pedigree, nirvana was clearly covering the meat puppets' version.

[BlackXSunlight]

It's probably a little awkward singing "black girl" lol

[BlackXSunlight]

The sound waves from her voice and the heat rays from her laser eyes would join frequencies and melt the planet. Mankind can't handle that yet.

[BlackXSunlight]

Whistles... better... than I can sing...
