《The Birth of the Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] The Birth of the Blues - Papa Bue's Viking Jazzband

[00:00:07] They heard the breeze

[00:00:10] In the trees

[00:00:12] Singing weird melodies

[00:00:17] And they named that

[00:00:21] The start of the blues

[00:00:25] And from a jail

[00:00:28] Came the wail

[00:00:30] Of a down-hearted frail

[00:00:35] And they played that

[00:00:39] As a part of the blues

[00:00:44] From a whippoorwill

[00:00:46] Out on a hill

[00:00:49] They took a new note

[00:00:53] Pushed it through a horn

[00:00:55] Till it was a worn

[00:00:57] Into a blue note

[00:01:02] And then they nursed it

[00:01:05] Rehearsed it

[00:01:08] Then gave out the news

[00:01:11] That the south land

[00:01:15] Gave birth to the blues

[00:02:01] From a whippoorwill

[00:02:03] Out on a hill

[00:02:05] They took a new note

[00:02:10] Pushed it through a horn

[00:02:12] Till it was a worn

[00:02:14] Into a blue note

[00:02:18] And they nursed it

[00:02:21] Rehearsed it

[00:02:25] Then gave out the news

[00:02:28] That the south land

[00:02:31] Gave birth to the blues

[00:02:37] And that the southland gave birth to the blues
