The Memphis Blues - Eartha Kitt/Shorty Rogers[00:00:00]
Written by:W.C. Handy/George A. Norton[00:00:01]
Folks I've just been down[00:00:10]
Down to memphis town[00:00:12]
That's where the people smile[00:00:14]
Smile on you all the while[00:00:16]
Hospitality[00:00:19]
They were good to me[00:00:21]
I couldn't spend a dime[00:00:23]
And had the grandest time[00:00:25]
I went out a dancing[00:00:27]
With a tennessee dear[00:00:29]
They had a fella there named handy[00:00:31]
With a band you should hear[00:00:33]
And while the dancers gently swayed[00:00:35]
All the band boys played[00:00:38]
Real harmony[00:00:40]
I never will forget[00:00:44]
The tune that handy called the memphis blues[00:00:46]
The got a fiddler there[00:00:53]
That always slickens his hair[00:00:55]
And folks he sure does pull some bow[00:00:57]
And when the big bassoon[00:01:02]
Seconds to the trombone's croon[00:01:05]
And moans just like a sinner on revival day[00:01:11]
Here me people hear me people hear me I pray[00:02:13]
I'm gonna take a million lessons 'til I learn how to play[00:02:17]
Because I seem to hear it yet[00:02:21]
Simply can't forget that blues refrain[00:02:25]
There's nothing like a handy band[00:02:30]
That played the memphis blues so grand[00:02:33]
That melancholy strain[00:02:39]
Ever haunting refrain[00:02:41]
Is like a morning sorrow song[00:02:44]
Here comes the very part[00:02:48]
That wraps it's spell around my heart[00:02:51]
I can't forget the tune[00:02:57]
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[00:03:14]
