[sofia] (spoken)
you told harpo to beat me?

[celie] (spoken)
i’m sorry

[sofia] (spoken)
i love harpo, god knows i do
but i k!ll him dead before i let him anybody beat me

[sofia]
all my life i’ve had to fight
i had to fight my daddy
i had to fight my brothers
my cousins, my uncles too

but i never, never, never, never, never, never thought
i’d have to fight in my own house

i feel sorry for you to tell you the truth
you remind me of my momma
under your husband’s thumb

no, you under your husband’s foot!
what he say goes

why you so scared, i never know
but if a man raise his hand
h-ll no

h-ll no!

girl child ain’t safe
in a family of mens
sick and tired old woman
still live like a slave

oh, you better learn how to fight back
while you still alive
you show him girls can beat back that jive

’cause when a man just don’t give a d-mn
h-ll no

h-ll no!

[celie] (spoken)
well, what’chu gonna do then?

[sofia] (spoken)
my sister’s comin’ to get me
i think i need a vacation up and away from here

[celie] (spoken)
but harpo’s your husband
you gotta stay with him
i know you love him

[sofia]
when that man used to touch me
he’d climb on top and start to rock me away
lord knows i still love him
but he tried to make me mind
and i just ain’t that kind

h-ll no

[celie] (spoken)
sometime my husband get on me so hard
it hurt me all over
but he’s my husband, so i just talk to my old maker
this life will soon be over, heaven last always

[sofia] (spoken)
well, what you oughta do is bash mister’s head open
and think on heaven later
you cain’t stay here, girl
sister

[celie]
h-ll no!

[sofia]
h-ll no!

[celie]
h-ll no!

[sofia]
h-ll no!

[celie]
h-ll no!

[sofia]
h-ll no!

[sisters]
h-ll no!
let’s go!

[sister] (sisters)
gonna be yo rock
gonna be yo tree
somethin’ to hold onto in your time of need

girl, you too good for that man
(tell that man)
come on, take yo hand
(take my hand)

[sisters]
sister, you got to go

[sister]
don’t be no fool
don’t waste your time
any man that hurt you ain’t worth the dime

[sofia] (sisters)
no he won’t know
till you gone
(she be gone)

[sisters]
sister, you got to go

[sofia]
girl, you too good for that man
let me tell you why
come on go
don’t you wanna go away

you got to leave, sister

[sisters]
sister you got to say

[sofia]
you got to say
you got to say
you better say
you oughta say

[sisters and sofia]
h-ll no!
