Miss Celie's Blues (Sister) (From ""The Color Purple"" Soundtrack") - Quincy Jones

Sister you've been on my mind

Oh sister we're two of a kind

So sister I'm keeping my eyes on you

I bet you think I don't know nothing

But singing the blues

Oh sister have I got news for you

I'm something

I hope you think that you're something too

Oh scuffling

I been up that lonesome road

And I seen a lot of suns going down

Oh but trust me

Now low life's gonna run me around

So let me tell you something sister

Remember you name

No twister gonna steal your stuff away

My sister

We shore ain't got a whole lot of time

So shake you shimmy sister

'Cause honeys miss Molly is feeling fine
