Nina sing yourself to me
Tell the world about your sadness and despair
You’ve known it well
Lazy calm oozes
I sit on the front porch
Imagining I am in the deep south
Sing Nina!
Tell me of the sorrow and the despair that you know!
The Sun and the Blues collaborate
Strangely made for each other
Heat and heartache
Smelted together in smooth sympatico waves.
