The Color Purple Musical Soundtrack Lyrics
The Color Purple
Celie
God forgot about me!
Shug
God takin' his time getting around to you, I admit, but look at all he give us.
laughin', and singin', and sex. sky over our heads, birds singin' to us. I think
it piss god off if anybody even walk past the color purple in a field and not
notice it. he say, “look what I made for you.”
Celie
God just another man, far as i'm concerned, he triflin' and lowdown . . .
Open up your eyes,
Look what god has done.
Celie
You better be gettin' back. your husband probably wonderin' where you are.
Shug
Where do you want to be, Celie?
Celie
With you.
Shug
All right then.
Celie
God gon' take me to live with you?
Shug
Come on.
