《The Birth Of The Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] The Birth Of The Blues - Sammy Davis Jr.

[00:00:22] Oh, they say some people long ago

[00:00:30] Were looking for a diffrent tune

[00:00:34] One that they could croon

[00:00:37] As only they can

[00:00:42] They only had the rhythm

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

[00:00:57] They didn't know just what to use

[00:01:00] But this is how the blues really began

[00:01:11] This is way the blues began

[00:01:29] They heard the breeze in the trees

[00:01:38] Singing weird melodies

[00:01:42] And they made that

[00:01:47] Just the start of the blues

[00:01:53] And from a jail there came the wail

[00:01:59] From down hearted frail

[00:02:04] And they played that

[00:02:07] As part of the blues

[00:02:13] Now From a whippoorwill

[00:02:16] Still I out of a hill

[00:02:19] They borrowed a new note

[00:02:23] And they pushed it in you heart

[00:02:27] And Till it was worn

[00:02:29] And Into a blue note

[00:02:34] And then they nursed it, yeah rehearsed it

[00:02:41] And then gave out the news

[00:02:46] That the southland gave birth to the blues

[00:02:55] From a whippoorwill Out of a hill

[00:03:01] They grand a new note

[00:03:05] And then Pushed it through a horn

[00:03:09] And Till it was worn

[00:03:11] And Into a blue note

[00:03:16] And then they really nursed it,

[00:03:20] Rehearsed it

[00:03:23] And they were so grand

[00:03:24] So grand to gave our the news

[00:03:28] That the southland gave birth to the blues

[00:03:37] Then you gave me hum nursed it,

[00:03:40] Rehearsed it
