《Birth Of The Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] The Birth Of The Blues - Shirley Bassey

[00:00:07] Oh They say some people long ago

[00:00:20] Were searching for a diff'rent tune

[00:00:25] One that they could croon

[00:00:29] As only they can

[00:00:36] They only had the rhythm so

[00:00:44] They started swaying to and fro

[00:00:52] They didn't know just what they had

[00:00:56] And that is how the blues really began:

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

[00:01:19] Singing weird melodies

[00:01:25] And they made that

[00:01:30] The start of the blues

[00:01:36] And from a jail came the wail

[00:01:45] Of a down hearted frail

[00:01:48] And they played that

[00:01:54] As part of the blues

[00:02:01] From a whippoorwill out on a hill

[00:02:09] They took a new note

[00:02:15] Pushed it through a horn

[00:02:20] 'Til it was born into a blue note

[00:02:27] And then they nursed it rehearsed it

[00:02:35] And gave out the news

[00:02:41] That the southland

[00:02:47] Gave birth to the blues
