Ol' Man Blues-Ode to Langston Hughes
Ol' man blues knocked on my back porch door
left a letter, marked I ain't comin' no mo',
foot slappin', finger tappin', on them old strings
whose applaud is silent
minds wonderin' and nappin'
ain't got no answer to the letter
but ol' man blues said he met her
when ol' man blues struts the porch again
I'll have a letter marked
personal my friend
