See the way he walks down the street
Watch the way he shuffles his feet
My, he holds his head up high
When he goes walking by
He's my guy
When he holds my hand, I'm so proud
'Cause he's not just one of the crowd
Why is he always the one
To try the things they've never done?

#BHM Black Women in Music: The Crystals
#TheCrystals were unfortunate victims of the music industry's history of "less than honest representation," but that didn't stop them from being hard working & amazing artists!

#TheCrystals #PopMusic #DomesticAbuse

Even in 1962, this song was controversial for its depiction of domestic violence.
See the way he walks down the street
Watch the way he shuffles his feet
My, he holds his head up high
When he goes walking by
He's my guy
When he holds my hand, I'm so proud

Why is he always the one
To try the things they've never done?
