The Birth Of The Blues - Sammy Davis Jr.[00:00:00]
Oh, they say some people long ago[00:00:22]
Were looking for a diffrent tune[00:00:30]
One that they could croon[00:00:34]
As only they can[00:00:37]
They only had the rhythm[00:00:42]
So they started swaying to and from[00:00:46]
They didn't know just what to use[00:00:57]
But this is how the blues really began[00:01:00]
This is way the blues began[00:01:11]
They heard the breeze in the trees[00:01:29]
Singing weird melodies[00:01:38]
And they made that[00:01:42]
Just the start of the blues[00:01:47]
And from a jail there came the wail[00:01:53]
From down hearted frail[00:01:59]
And they played that[00:02:04]
As part of the blues[00:02:07]
Now From a whippoorwill[00:02:13]
Still I out of a hill[00:02:16]
They borrowed a new note[00:02:19]
And they pushed it in you heart[00:02:23]
And Till it was worn[00:02:27]
And Into a blue note[00:02:29]
And then they nursed it, yeah rehearsed it[00:02:34]
And then gave out the news[00:02:41]
That the southland gave birth to the blues[00:02:46]
From a whippoorwill Out of a hill[00:02:55]
They grand a new note[00:03:01]
And then Pushed it through a horn[00:03:05]
And Till it was worn[00:03:09]
And Into a blue note[00:03:11]
And then they really nursed it,[00:03:16]
Rehearsed it[00:03:20]
And they were so grand[00:03:23]
So grand to gave our the news[00:03:24]
That the southland gave birth to the blues[00:03:28]
Then you gave me hum nursed it,[00:03:37]
Rehearsed it[00:03:40]
Gave out the news[00:03:41]
That the Southland gave birth[00:03:45]
The birth to the blues[00:03:48]
