  • Weary Blues
By Langston HughesDroning a drowsy syncopated tune,Rocking back and forth to a mellow croon, I heard a Negro play.
  • O Blues!
Swaying to and fro on his rickety stoolHe played that sad raggy tune like a musical fool.
  • He played a few chords then he sang some more--
"I got the Weary Blues And I can't be satisfied.
  • Got the Weary Blues
And can't be satisfied-- I ain't happy no mo' And I wish that I had died."And far into the night he crooned that tune.
  • He slept like a rock or a man that's dead.
