In the Pines (Oakland)

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 don't shine

I shiver the whole night through

Black girl, black girl, where will you go?

To the place where the cold wind blows

In the pines, in the pines

Where the sun don't shine

I shiver the whole night through

Black girl, black girl, your man is gone

Now you travel the road alone

And you raised that child all by yourself

Then the policeman shot him down

Black girl, black girl, where will you go?

To the place where the cold wind blows

In the pines, in the pines

Where the sun don't shine

I shiver the whole night through

Well, I know that your heart is breaking

Into one million pieces

I know that your heart is breaking, I know

Where did you sleep last night?

In the pines, in the pines

Where the sun don't shine

In the pines, in the pines

Where the sun don't shine

In the pines, in the pines

Where the sun don't shine

In the pines, in the pines

Where the sun don't shine

Where the sun don't shine

Where the sun don't shine

Where the sun don't shine

Where the sun don't shine

Where the sun

Shine no more (I don't want nobody to-to-to tell me)

Shine no more (she say, I don't want nobody to tell me)

Shine no more (I don't want nobody to tell me)

Shine no more

Shine no more

Shine no more

Shine no more
