Lyrics Four Women (Live) - Nina Simone

Four Women

My skin is black
My arms are long
My hair is woolly
My back is strong
Strong enough to take the pain
Since it′s inflicted again and again
What do they call me
My name is Aunt Sarah

My skin is yellow
My hair is long
Between two worlds
I do belong
My father was rich and white
He forced my mother late one night
What do they call me
My name is Saffronia

My skin is tan, tan
My hair is oh right, it's fine
My hips invite you
My mouth is like wine
Whose little girl am I?
Or who has some money to buy
What do they call me
They call me is Sweet Thing
They call me is Sweet Thing

My skin is brown
And my manner is tough
I′ll kill the first mother I see
'Cause my life has been too rough
I'm awfully bitter these days
Because my parents were slaves
What do they call me
They call me Peaches
