I haven't seen you for many years, since 1968
I have decided that I would do no more jazz festivals
That decision has not changed, I will sing for you
Or we will do and share with you a few moments
After which I shall graduate to a higher class, I hope
And I hope you will come with me
We would start from the beginning
Which is about a little girl and her name was Blue
Sit there, count your fingers
What can you do?
You knew
Sit there and count your little toes and fingers
Liberated little girl, Blue
Sit there, count the raindrops falling on you
It's time you knew
All you can count on is yourself, little girl
Liberated little girl, Blue
Sit there and count the snow that's falling on you
Little girl, you knew
All you can count on is yourself, little girl
Little lady, Miss. Sadie
Little lady, Miss. Sadie
No longer little girl, Blue
Ain't no used to try to tell them
They would not understand if you try to tell them
Why don't somebody sin
Sinmoya, sinmoya
It's East African
Moya to cheer up
Somebody sin
Sinmoya
To cheer up
Little girl
Little girl, Blue
