《Birth Of The Blues》歌词

[00:00:23] Oh

[00:00:29] They say some people long ago

[00:00:36] Were searchin' for a diff'rent tune

[00:00:39] One that they could croon

[00:00:40] As only they can

[00:00:47] They only had the rhythm

[00:00:50] So

[00:00:53] They started swayin' to and fro

[00:01:00] They didn't know just what to use

[00:01:03] That is how the blues

[00:01:07] Really began

[00:01:12] They heard the breeze in the trees

[00:01:20] Singin' weird melodies

[00:01:24] And they made that

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

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

[00:01:44] Of a down hearted frail

[00:01:48] And they played that

[00:01:55] As part of the blues

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

[00:02:07] They took a new note

[00:02:09] Whippoorwill

[00:02:10] Whippoorwill

[00:02:11] Whippoorwill

[00:02:13] Pushed it through a horn 'till it was worn

[00:02:19] Into a blue note

[00:02:21] Whippoorwill

[00:02:24] Whippoorwill

[00:02:24] Whippoorwill

[00:02:24] An' then they nursed it

[00:02:29] And rehearsed it

[00:02:32] And gave out the news

[00:02:37] That the southland

[00:02:42] Gave birth to the blues

[00:02:46] Shout out the wonderful news

[00:02:50] Oh

[00:02:51] The breeze from the trees

[00:02:54] A wail from the jail

[00:02:57] A buzz from the cousin of a nightin'gale

[00:03:00] And southland

[00:03:02] Hello

[00:03:06] Hello

[00:03:07] Gave birth to the blues
