[nettie & celie]
hey, sister, what you gon’ do
going down by the river gonna play with you
papa don’t like no screamin’ ’round here
no lip from the woman when they chug that beer

[celie]
you all grown up and pretty now
it’s time for you to get married
have one good year before you get big

[nettie]
i can’t get married, i’m still in school
who that man talkin’ to pa?

[celie]

he lookin’ for a new wife to take care of his mean chirren

[nettie]

look at him, holdin’ his whip like he got a horse waitin’ somewhere
you see any horse?

[celie]

[nettie]
i wanna know how the world goes
how far is the moon
how the sky changes color

[celie]
i wanna sit and do nothin’
make you a new dress
hope my babies are happy
someplace god will bless

[pa]

[nettie]

[celie]
it ain’t worth a big fuss

[both]

is in god’s hands

when i lay me down to sleep
i will say my prayer
that god love me so deep
he will promise our souls to keep
together

i’ll say a prayer

[celie & nettie] / [mister]
when i lay me down to sleep/i wanna marry nettie

[celie]
put swings in the trees

[nettie]
braid up your gray hair

[both]
in the cool of the breeze

and one day
our children will sing

when i lay me down to sleep
i will say my prayer
that god love me so deep
he will promise our souls to keep
together

i’ll say a prayer
i’ll say our prayer
