Po Boy Blues
When I was home de
Sunshine seemed like gold.
When I was home de
Sunshine seemed like gold.
Since I e up North de
Whole damn worlds turned cold.
I was a good boy,
Never done n.
Yes, I was a good boy,
Never done n,
But this world is weary
An de road is hard an long.
I fell in love with
A gal I thought was kind.
Fell in love with
A gal I thought was kind.
She made me lose ma money
An almost lose ma mind.
Weary, weary,
Weary early in de morn.
Weary, weary,
Early, early in de morn.
Is so weary
I wish Id never been born.
Langston Hughes
