the color purple (musical) - our prayer lyrics
[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]
girl at church say
he lookin’ for a new wife to take care of his mean chirren
[nettie]
well i see where they get their mean from
look at him, holdin’ his whip like he got a horse waitin’ somewhere
you see any horse?
[celie]
you don’t wanna get married?
[nettie]
i wanna know how the world goes
how far is the moon
how the sky changes color
hope i find out soon
[nettie]
what you want?
[celie]
i wanna sit and do nothin’
make you a new dress
hope my babies are happy
someplace god will bless
[pa]
celie! get to work!
[nettie]
ain’t no need to discuss
[celie]
it ain’t worth a big fuss
[both]
whatever come to us
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
[pa]
why you wanna know so much about tobacco?
[mister]
i’m thinkin’ ’bout plantin’ it
[pa]
you is not
now what you doin’ here?
[mister]
i wanna marry nettie
she a sweet young girl
[pa]
she too young
[mister]
she’s the cutest thing
in this whole world
[pa]
she gonna be a teacher
[nettie]
picture me in a schoolhouse
with my college degree
i can teach all my children
to spell tennessee
[pa]
you can have celie, though
she too old to be livin’ at home
[celie]
maybe i’ll have a garden
where birds come to sing
[mister]
i don’t want celie
she ugly
[celie]
know a finch from a sparrow
fix a broken wing
[nettie]
i wanna hear your birds sing
[celie]
wanna hear your school bell ring
[both]
no matter what life bring
us in god’s hands
[pa]
whyn’t you quit comin’ ’round here
just go marry shug avery?
[ensemble]
shug avery
[nettie]
who shug avery?
[ensemble]
shug avery!
[celie]
she mister ol’ girlfriend
[mister]
shug avery not a child-raisin’ woman
you know that
she the queen honeybee
[pa]
she a low-down ho, is what everybody said
you lookin’ for a new shug avery, you better go to memphis
all we got here is one pretty girl you’ll never have
and one ugly girl can work like a man
[mister]
i really want that girl
[pa]
i told you no!
[celie & nettie] / [mister]
when i lay me down to sleep/i wanna marry nettie
i will say my prayer/she’s a sweet young girl
that god love me so deep/she the cutest thing
he will promise our souls to keep/in this whole word
together, i’ll say a prayer/i really want that girl
[celie]
you want any kids?
[nettie]
someday, i guess
i know you do
[celie]
doctor say i can’t have no more kids
i think god just want me to take care of you
[nettie]
we’ll live in big houses
[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
