Po Boy Blues

　　by Langston Hughes

　　 When I was home de

　　 Sunshine seemed like gold.

　　 When I was home de

　　 Sunshine seemed like gold.

　　 Since I come up North de

　　 Whole damn world's turned cold.

　　 I was a good boy，

　　 Never done no wrong.

　　 Yes， I was a good boy，

　　 Never done no wrong，

　　 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.

　　 I's so weary I wish I'd never been born
