Celie:<br>

You cant do this! You cant do this!<br>

Why you do this, dear God?<br>

<br>

What you done wit' my sister?<br>

How this play in yo' plan?<br>

Wont you bring back my Nettie?<br>

You the only one who can!<br>

<br>

I never ask for anything<br>

But Im askin' for this:<br>

If Im really a lily of the field<br>

You will answer my prayer<br>

Or you're no God at all<br>

<br>

Nettie...<br>

<br>

Mister:<br>

What you think you doin'? You touch that mailbox, I'll kill ya, gal<br>

<br>

Celie:<br>

So many winters grey and summers blue<br>

She must be dead<br>

What kind of God are you?<br>

<br>

<br>
