Lyrics

Hey, Hey! One fine day, You're goin' away. What do you say little girl? Yes you, I'm talking to. Tell me what right have you to leave me black and blue? You say nothing last forever, no never ever ever. But the goods you got, Oh God! You know it's hot, hot, hot, hot, hot! (Ooh-ooh, black and blue.), It's hot. (Ooh-ooh, black and blue.), That's right! It's black and white. You're sayin' day is night. You leave me black and blue. Yeah you, I'm talkin' to! Just say it went through, You leave me black and blue. (Ooh-ooh, black and blue) (Ooh-ooh, black and blue) You say nothings everlasting, And that love is just the last thing. That you feel you want, you know you got. You know it's hot, hot, hot, hot, hot! (Ooh-ooh, black and blue) (Ooh-ooh, black and blue) (Ooh-ooh, black and blue) (Ooh-ooh, black and blue) Well I've tried and I've tried, To make it on my own. But I just can't leave your love alone. Maybe just maybe I'll get it sometime. From a boat or a plane or a magical sign. Send me the pieces that make up my heart. I'll put them together a part by a part by a... Hey you! I'm talkin' to. Tell me what right have you, To leave me black and blue? Yeah what right have you? What right? To leave me black and blue. You wanna fight, you're sayin' day is night. You leave me black. Bring back the pieces that make up my heart. I'll put them together a part by a part by a... Hey you, I'm black and blue...
