The Birth Of The Blues - Sammy Davis Jr./The Modernaires[00:00:02]

Oh they say some people along ago[00:00:06]

Where lookin' for a different tune[00:00:15]

One that they could coon[00:00:18]

As only they can[00:00:21]

They only had the rhythm[00:00:27]

So they started swingin' to and fro[00:00:29]

They didn't know just what to use[00:00:39]

But this is how the blues[00:00:42]

Really began[00:00:45]

This is the way the blues began[00:00:51]

They heard the breeze[00:00:59]

Through the trees[00:01:06]

Singing weird melodies[00:01:08]

And they named that[00:01:12]

Just the start of the blues[00:01:16]

Then from a jail[00:01:22]

There came a wail[00:01:25]

From a down heart frail[00:01:27]

And they played that[00:01:32]

As a part of the blues[00:01:35]

Now from a whippoorwill[00:01:40]

Sittin' high on a hill[00:01:43]

They took a new note[00:01:46]

And they pushed it through a horn[00:01:49]

Until it was worn and into a blue note[00:01:53]

And then they nursed it[00:01:59]

Yeah rehearsed it[00:02:02]

And then gave out the news[00:02:05]

That the south land[00:02:10]

Really gave birth to the blues[00:02:13]

From a whippoorwill[00:02:18]

High on a hill[00:02:21]

They grabbed a new note[00:02:23]

And they pushed it through a horn[00:02:28]

Until it was worn and into a blue note[00:02:30]

And then they nursed it[00:02:37]

Oh rehearsed it[00:02:40]

And then gave out the news[00:02:43]

That the south land[00:02:47]

Gave birth to the blues[00:02:51]

Everybody they nursed it[00:02:56]

Rehearsed it[00:02:59]

And gave out the news[00:03:00]

That that old south land[00:03:03]

Gave birth the birth to the blues[00:03:05]
