《Birth of the Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Birth of the Blues - Ameritz Tribute Standards (阿莫瑞兹致敬标准)

[00:00:10] Oh they say some people along ago

[00:00:17] Where scering for a different tune

[00:00:21] One that they could croon

[00:00:23] As only they can

[00:00:28] They only had the rhythm

[00:00:30] So they started swingin' to and fro

[00:00:38] They didn't know just what to use

[00:00:42] But that is how the blues

[00:00:44] Really began

[00:00:49] They heard the breeze

[00:00:51] Through the trees

[00:00:53] Singing weird melodies

[00:00:57] And they named that

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

[00:01:04] And from a jail

[00:01:07] Came a wail

[00:01:09] From a down heart frail

[00:01:13] And they played that

[00:01:16] As a part of the blues

[00:01:20] From a whippoor will

[00:01:22] Sittin' high on a hill

[00:01:24] They took a new note

[00:01:28] Pushed it through a horn

[00:01:30] Until it was worn into a blue note

[00:01:35] And they nursed it

[00:01:37] Still it rehearsed it

[00:01:40] And then gave out the news

[00:01:43] That the South Land

[00:01:46] Gave birth to the blues

[00:01:51] From a whippoor will

[00:01:53] High on a hill

[00:01:54] They grabbed a new note

[00:01:58] Pushed it through a horn

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

[00:02:05] And then they nursed it

[00:02:08] Oh rehearsed it

[00:02:10] And then gave out the news

[00:02:13] That the South Land

[00:02:16] Gave birth to the blues

[00:02:21] Everybody they nursed it

[00:02:23] Rehearsed it

[00:02:23] And gave out the news

[00:02:24] That that old South Land

[00:02:27] Gave birth to the blues
