The Birth of the Blues (Live 1961) - Lionel Hampton (莱尼尔·汉普顿)[00:00:00]

Oh they say some people along ago[00:00:30]

Were searching for a different tune[00:00:37]

One that they could croon[00:00:39]

As only they can[00:00:41]

They only had the rhythm[00:00:45]

So they started swingin' to and fro[00:00:47]

They didn't know just what to use[00:00:53]

And that is how the blues[00:00:56]

Really began[00:00:58]

They heard the breeze[00:01:01]

In the trees[00:01:04]

Singing weird melodies[00:01:06]

And they named that[00:01:10]

The start of the blues[00:01:13]

And from a jail[00:01:17]

Came a wail[00:01:20]

Of a down-hearted frail[00:01:22]

And they played that[00:01:25]

As a part of the blues[00:01:28]

From a whippoorwill[00:01:33]

Out on a hill[00:01:35]

They took a new note[00:01:37]

Pushed it through a horn[00:01:41]

Till it was a worn[00:01:43]

Into a blue note[00:01:45]

And then they nursed it[00:01:48]

Rehearsed it[00:01:51]

And gave out the hew[00:01:53]

That the south land[00:01:56]

Gave birth to the blues[00:01:59]

From a whippoorwill[00:02:04]

Out on a hill[00:02:06]

They took a new note[00:02:08]

Pushed it through a horn[00:02:12]

Till it was a worn[00:02:14]

Into a blue note[00:02:16]

And then they nursed it[00:02:19]

Rehearsed it[00:02:22]

And gave out the hew[00:02:24]

That the south land[00:02:27]

Gave birth to the blues[00:02:30]

And then they nursed it[00:02:34]

Rehearsed it[00:02:36]

Gave out the news[00:02:37]

That the south land[00:02:39]

To give birth to the blues[00:02:41]
