The Weary Blues - Charles Mingus (查尔斯·明格斯)[00:00:00]

Droning a drowsy syncopated tune [00:01:01]

Rocking back and forth to a mellow croon [00:01:05]

I heard a Negro play [00:01:08]

Down on Lenox Avenue the other night[00:01:12]

By the pale dull pallor of an old gas light[00:01:15]

He did a lazy sway[00:01:19]

He did a lazy sway[00:01:22]

To the tune those Weary Blues [00:01:23]

With his ebony hands on each ivory key[00:01:28]

He made that poor piano moan with melody [00:01:31]

Oh Blues [00:01:35]

Swaying to and fro on his rickety stool[00:01:38]

He played that sad raggy tune like a musical fool [00:01:41]

Sweet Blues [00:01:45]

Coming from a black man's soul [00:01:48]

Oh Blues [00:01:51]

In a deep song voice with a melancholy tone[00:01:56]

I heard that Negro sing that old piano moan[00:01:59]

Ain't got nobody in all this world [00:02:04]

Ain't got nobody but meself [00:02:08]

I was gwine to quit ma frowning[00:02:11]

And put ma troubles on the shelf [00:02:13]

Thump thump thump went his foot on the floor [00:02:18]

He played a few chords then he sang some more[00:02:22]

I got the Weary Blues[00:02:25]

And I can't be satisfied [00:02:26]

Got the Weary Blues[00:02:29]

And can't be satisfied[00:02:31]

I ain't happy no more[00:02:34]

And I wish that I had died [00:02:36]

Far into the night he crooned that tune [00:02:41]

The stars went out and so did the moon [00:02:44]

The singer stopped playing and went to bed[00:02:47]

While the Weary Blues echoed through his head [00:02:51]

He slept like a rock or a man that's dead[00:02:54]
