《The Memphis Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] The Memphis Blues - Eartha Kitt

[00:00:10] Folks I've just been down

[00:00:12] Down to Memphis town

[00:00:14] That's where the people smile

[00:00:17] Smile on you all the while

[00:00:19] Hospitality they were good to me

[00:00:23] I couldn't spend a dime

[00:00:25] And had the grandest time

[00:00:27] I went out a dancing with a Tennessee dear

[00:00:31] They had a fellow there named Handy

[00:00:33] With a band you should hear

[00:00:36] And while the dance gently swayed

[00:00:39] All the band folks played Real harmony

[00:00:44] I never will forget the tune

[00:00:47] That Handy called the Memphis Blues

[00:00:53] They've got a fiddler there

[00:00:55] That always slickens his hair

[00:00:58] And folks he sure do pull some bow

[00:01:02] And when the big Bassoon seconds

[00:01:05] To the Trombones croon

[00:01:11] It moans just like a sinner on Revival Day

[00:02:14] Hear me people hear me people hear me I pray

[00:02:17] I'm going to take a million lesson's

[00:02:20] Til I learn how to play

[00:02:22] Because I seem to hear it yet

[00:02:25] Simply can't forget

[00:02:27] That blue refrain

[00:02:30] There's nothing like the Handy Band

[00:02:33] That played the Memphis Blues so grand

[00:02:40] That melancholy strain that ever haunting refrain

[00:02:44] Is like a morning sorrow song

[00:02:48] Here comes the very part

[00:02:51] That wraps a spell around my heart

[00:02:57] I can forget the tune

[00:03:00] That Handy called the Memphis Blues

[00:03:06] I can forget the tune

[00:03:09] That Handy called the Memphis

[00:03:15] Memphis Blues
