Birth Of The Blues (Live) - Matt Monro[00:00:00]
Oh they say some people long ago[00:00:17]
Were searching for a different tune[00:00:25]
One that they could croon[00:00:29]
As only they can[00:00:31]
They only had the rhythm so[00:00:37]
They started swaying to and fro[00:00:44]
They didn't know just what they had[00:00:50]
And that is how the blues really began[00:00:54]
They heard the breeze in the trees[00:01:04]
Singing weird melodies[00:01:12]
And they made that[00:01:19]
The start of the blues[00:01:24]
And from a jail came the wail[00:01:30]
Of a down hearted frail[00:01:39]
And they played that[00:01:45]
As part of the blues[00:01:50]
From a whippoorwill out on a hill[00:01:58]
They took a new note[00:02:04]
And they pushed it through a horn[00:02:09]
'Til it was born into a blue note[00:02:16]
And then they nursed it rehearsed it[00:02:23]
And they send out the news[00:02:32]
That the southland[00:02:38]
Gave birth to the blues[00:02:43]
And then they nursed it and they rehearsed it[00:02:52]
And they send out the news[00:02:58]
That the southland[00:03:01]
Gave birth to the blues[00:03:08]
