[Intro]
[Verse]
I paint my nai
ls black,
I dye my hair
a darker shade
of brown,
'Cause you lik
e your women,
Spanish, dark,
strong and pr
oud.
You paint the
sky black,
You said if yo
u could have y
our way,
You'd make a n
ighttime world
today,
So it'd suit t
he mood of you
r soul.
Oh, what can I
do?
Nothing my spa
rrow, blue.
[Chorus]
Oh, what can I
do?
Life is beauti
ful,
But you don't
have a clue.
Sun and ocean,
blue,
That magnifice
nce,
It don't make
sense to you.
Black beauty,
oh-oh-oh-oh.
Black beauty,
oh-oh-oh-oh.
[Verse]
I paint the ho
use black,
My wedding dre
ss black leath
er too.
You have no ro
om for light,
Love is lost o
n you.
I keep my lips
red,
To seem like c
herries in the
spring.
Darling, you c
an't let every
thing,
Seem so dark b
lue.
Oh, what can I
do,
To turn you on
or get throug
h you?
[Chorus]
Oh, what can I
do?
Life is beauti
ful,
But you don't
have a clue.
Sun and ocean,
blue,
That magnifice
nce,
It don't make
sense to you.
Black beauty,
oh-oh-oh-oh.
Black beauty,
oh-oh-oh-oh.
[Bridge]
Black beauty,
oh-oh-oh-oh,
Black beauty,
oh-oh-oh.
Black beauty,
oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
-oh-oh,
Black beauty,
baby, black be
auty, baby.
[Chorus]
Oh, what can I
do?
Life is beauti
ful,
But you don't
have a clue.
Sun and ocean,
blue,
That magnifice
nce,
It don't make
sense to you.
Black beauty,
oh-oh-oh-oh.
Black beauty,
oh-oh-oh-oh.
Black beauty,
oh-oh-oh-oh.
Black beauty,
oh-oh-oh-oh.
