《The Birth of the Blues(78rpm Version)》歌词

[00:00:01] The Birth Of The Blues - Frank Sinatra

[00:00:05] These are the blues nothin' but blues

[00:00:19] Oh they say some people long ago

[00:00:30] Were searching for a diff'rent tune

[00:00:34] One that they could croon as only they can

[00:00:42] They only had the rhythm

[00:00:46] So they started swayin' to and fro

[00:00:55] They didn't know just what to use

[00:01:00] This is how the blues really began

[00:01:08] They heard the breeze in the trees

[00:01:19] Singin' weird melodies

[00:01:26] And they made that the start of the blues

[00:01:38] And from a jail came the wail of a down-hearted frail

[00:01:53] And they played that as a part of the blues

[00:02:05] From a whippoorwill way upon a hill

[00:02:11] They took a new note

[00:02:17] Pushed it through a horn

[00:02:21] Until it was worn into a blue note

[00:02:29] And then they nursed it

[00:02:38] They rehearsed it

[00:02:41] And then sent out that news

[00:02:46] That the Southland gave birth to the blues

[00:02:59] They nursed it

[00:03:02] Then they rehearsed it

[00:03:05] And they sent out that news

[00:03:09] That the Southland they gave birth to the blues
