《The Birth of the Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] The Birth of the Blues - Frank Sinatra (法兰克·辛纳屈)

[00:00:04] These are the blues nothing but blues

[00:00:19] Oh they say some people long ago

[00:00:30] Were searching for a different tune

[00:00:34] One that they could croon as only they can

[00:00:43] They only had the rhythm

[00:00:46] So they started swaying to and from

[00:00:56] They didn't know just what to use

[00:01:00] This is how the blues really began

[00:01:09] They heard the breeze in the trees

[00:01:20] Singing weird melodies

[00:01:27] And they made that the start of the blues

[00:01:39] And from a jail came the wail of a down hearted frail

[00:01:54] And they played that as a part of the blues

[00:02:06] From a whippoorwill way upon a hill

[00:02:13] They took a new note

[00:02:19] Pushed it through a horn

[00:02:22] Until it was worn into a blue note

[00:02:30] And then they nursed it

[00:02:39] They rehearsed it

[00:02:42] And then sent out that news

[00:02:48] That the Southland gave birth to the blues

[00:03:02] They nursed it

[00:03:04] Then they rehearsed it

[00:03:08] And they sent out that news

[00:03:12] That the Southland they gave birth to the blues
