Steve Earle Picture
Steve Earle(born January 17, 1955) is a singer-songwriterbest known for his countrymusic and rock 'n roll tinged " alt-country." He is also a published writer, a keen political activist (particularly in protesting against the death penalty in the U.S., as in his song "Ellis Unit One" from the movie Dead Man Walking), and has written and directed a play. Born in Hampton, Virginia, legend has it that a box of Texas dirt, sent by his grandfather, was brought into the delivery room, so that it could be said that the first soil Earle's feet ever touched was Texan. He moved around the U.S. with his parents, before dropping out of school in the 8th grade and heading to Houston, Texas, to explore a career in music. In 1975, he moved to Nashville and worked as a songwriter.

Baby’s In Black Lyrics

Steve Earle

Oh dear, what can I do?
Babys in black and Im feeling blue,
Tell me, oh what can I do?
She thinks of him and so she dresses in black,
And though hell never come back, shes dressed in black.
Oh dear, what can I do?
Babys in black and Im feeling blue,
Tell me, oh what can I do?
I think of her, but she only thinks of him,
And though its only a whim, she thinks of him.
Oh how long will it take,
Till she sees the mistake she has made?
Dear what can I do?
Babys in black and Im feeling blue,
Tell me, oh what can I do?
Oh how long it will take,
Till she sees the mistake she has made?
Dear what can I do?
Babys in black and Im feeling blue,
Tell me, oh what can I do?
She thinks of him and so she dresses in black,
And though hell never come back, shes dressed in black.
Oh dear, what can I do?
Babys in black and Im feeling blue,
Tell me, oh what can I do?
