The Memphis Blues - Eartha Kitt[00:00:00]
Folks I've just been down [00:00:10]
Down to Memphis town [00:00:13]
That's where the people smile [00:00:14]
Smile on you all the while [00:00:17]
Hospitality they were good to me [00:00:19]
I couldn't spend a dime [00:00:24]
And had the grandest time [00:00:25]
I went out a dancing[00:00:28]
With a Tennessee dear [00:00:29]
They had a fellow there named Handy[00:00:31]
With a band you should hear[00:00:33]
And while the dance gently swayed [00:00:36]
All the band boys played real harmony [00:00:39]
I never will forget the tune[00:00:45]
That Handy called the Memphis Blues [00:00:47]
They got a fiddler there[00:00:53]
That always slickens his hair[00:00:56]
And folks he sure does pull some bow [00:00:58]
And when the big Bassoon[00:01:02]
Seconds to the Trombones croon [00:01:05]
It moans just like a sinner[00:01:11]
On Revival Day [00:01:14]
Hear me people [00:02:14]
Hear me people [00:02:15]
Hear me I pray [00:02:16]
I'm gonna take a million lesson's[00:02:17]
'Til I learn how to play[00:02:20]
Because I seem to hear it yet [00:02:22]
Simply can't forget[00:02:25]
That blue refrain [00:02:27]
There's nothing like the Handy Band[00:02:31]
That played the Memphis Blues so grand [00:02:33]
That melancholy strain [00:02:40]
That ever haunting refrain[00:02:42]
Is like a morning sorrow song [00:02:44]
Here comes the very part[00:02:48]
That wraps a spell around my heart [00:02:51]
I can't forget the tune[00:02:58]
That Handy called the Memphis Blues [00:03:00]
I can't forget the tune[00:03:06]
That Handy called the Memphis[00:03:09]
The Memphis Blues[00:03:15]
