Blues poem maybe?
Woke up dis morning
Round the time dawn broke
Tried me some coffee and it tasted like dirt
Got mud stained all over my shirt
Made some corn beef and hash
Can't go out to get grub Ima low on cash
My girls the worst cook around
Always almost burning my shack to the ground
Say I'm leaving her
Never can
Afraid if I do she have a heart attack
I can't call this the blues
Right now it feels like the greens
That sick feeling I got two weeks after we met
Know she been out somewhere else then what she sayin
Yet can't call it that either
Nor reds, purples, yellows or grays
Not any colour really
More like joy
Sweet joy
And the wonderful feelin of relief
Thank god I got away from that witch!
If I knew that guy shed been with cheating on me with
I swear to god Id go up hug that son of a bitch!
I know that the time I get to my home
My wife be bringin me a beer
Callin my dear
Sayin she so alone!
And how dis mans her freedom
Maybe
I never approve or disagree
Cause I know
Oh yeah do I know
I know that after she's packed up and gone
She out of my life
She is gone like them dinosaurs
So I never approve or disagree
Because I know
Oh how I know
That I am the one who is finally free
