NINA SIMONE lyrics : "four women"


My skin is black, my arms are long


My hair is woolly, my back is strong

Strong enough to take the pain, inflicted again and again


What do they call me? My name is aunt Sarah


My name is aunt Sarah, aunt Sarah




My skin is yellow, my hair is long


Between two worlds I do belong

But my father was rich and white


He forced my mother late one night


And what do they call me?

My name is Saffronia, my name is Saffronia





My skin is tan, my hair fine

My hips invite you, my mouth like wine


Whose little girl am I? Anyone who has money to buy


What do they call me? My name is Sweet Thing

My name is Sweet Thing





My skin is brown, my manner is tough

I'll kill the first mother I see, my life has been rough


I'm awfully bitter these days, because my parents were slaves


What do they call me? My name is Peaches
