Chapter 41 Po' Boy Blues

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 worlds 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 my mind. Weary, weary, Weary early in de morn. Weary, weary, Early, early in de morn. Is so weary I wish Id never been born.
