Birth of the Blues - Frank Sinatra (法兰克·辛纳屈)/Dean Martin (迪安·马丁)/Sammy Davis Jr.[00:00:00]
Oh they say some people long ago[00:00:06]
Were searching for a diff'rent tune[00:00:15]
One that they could croon[00:00:19]
As only they can[00:00:21]
They only had the rhythm[00:00:27]
So they started swaying to and fro[00:00:29]
They didn't know just what to use[00:00:39]
That is how the blues really began[00:00:42]
That is how the blues really began[00:00:51]
They heard the breeze in the trees[00:00:59]
Singing weird melodies[00:01:09]
And they made that the start of the blues[00:01:13]
And from a jail came the wail[00:01:23]
Of a down-hearted frail[00:01:27]
And they played that[00:01:32]
As part of the blues[00:01:35]
From a whippoorwill[00:01:40]
Out on a hill[00:01:43]
They took a new note[00:01:46]
Pushed it through a horn[00:01:49]
'Til it was worn[00:01:53]
Into a blue note[00:01:55]
And then they nursed it rehearsed it[00:01:59]
And gave out the news[00:02:05]
That the Southland gave birth to the blues [00:02:10]
From a whippoorwill[00:02:19]
Out on a hill[00:02:21]
They took a new note[00:02:24]
Pushed it through a horn[00:02:28]
'Til it was worn[00:02:31]
Into a blue note[00:02:33]
And then they nursed it rehearsed it[00:02:37]
And gave out the news[00:02:43]
That the Southland gave birth to the blues [00:02:47]
And then they nursed it rehearsed it[00:02:56]
And gave out the news[00:03:00]
That the Southland gave birth to the blues[00:03:03]
