The Birth Of The Blues - Shirley Bassey[00:00:00]
Oh They say some people long ago[00:00:07]
Were searching for a diff'rent tune [00:00:20]
One that they could croon[00:00:25]
As only they can [00:00:29]
They only had the rhythm so[00:00:36]
They started swaying to and fro [00:00:44]
They didn't know just what they had[00:00:52]
And that is how the blues really began:[00:00:56]
They heard the breeze in the trees[00:01:09]
Singing weird melodies[00:01:19]
And they made that[00:01:25]
The start of the blues [00:01:30]
And from a jail came the wail[00:01:36]
Of a down hearted frail [00:01:45]
And they played that[00:01:48]
As part of the blues [00:01:54]
From a whippoorwill out on a hill [00:02:01]
They took a new note [00:02:09]
Pushed it through a horn[00:02:15]
'Til it was born into a blue note [00:02:20]
And then they nursed it rehearsed it [00:02:27]
And gave out the news[00:02:35]
That the southland[00:02:41]
Gave birth to the blues[00:02:47]
