《Birth of the Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] The Birth Of The Blues - Harry Richman

[00:00:04] Oh they say some people along ago

[00:00:10] Were searching for a different tune

[00:00:13] One that they could croon

[00:00:15] As only they can

[00:00:18] They only had the rhythm

[00:00:20] So they started swingin' to and fro

[00:00:26] They didn't know just what to use

[00:00:28] That is how the blues

[00:00:31] Really began

[00:00:34] They heard the breeze

[00:00:37] In the trees

[00:00:39] Singing weird melodies

[00:00:43] And they named that

[00:00:46] The start of the blues

[00:00:50] Then from a jail

[00:00:53] Came a wail

[00:00:55] Of a down-hearted frail

[00:00:59] And they played that

[00:01:02] As a part of the blues

[00:01:07] From a whippoorwill

[00:01:09] Out in a hill

[00:01:11] They took a new note

[00:01:15] Pushed it through a horn

[00:01:18] Till it was a worn

[00:01:20] Into a blue note

[00:01:23] And then they nursed it

[00:01:26] They rehearsed it

[00:01:29] And gave out the hew

[00:01:32] That the south land

[00:01:35] Gave birth to the blues

[00:01:39] They heard the breeze in the trees

[00:01:45] They were singing weird melodies

[00:01:48] And they took that and

[00:01:50] Made that the start of the blues

[00:01:55] And then from a jail came a little for long wail

[00:02:01] From a down-hearted frail

[00:02:04] And they played that and made it part of the blues

[00:02:11] And then from a little whippoorwill

[00:02:14] That were singing in the hill

[00:02:17] They took a sweet new note

[00:02:20] And they pushed it in a horn

[00:02:22] 'Til it was worn into a wonderful blue note

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

[00:02:30] They nursed it

[00:02:31] Rehearsed it

[00:02:32] Rehearsed it

[00:02:33] And then gave out the news

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