《The Birth Of The Blues》歌词

[00:01:31] The Birth of the Blues (Live Version) - Sammy Davis Jr.

[00:01:31] They... heard... the breeze

[00:01:31] Through the trees

[00:01:31] Singing weird weird melodies

[00:01:31] And they named that

[00:01:31] Just the start of the blues

[00:01:31] Then from a jail

[00:01:31] There came a wail

[00:01:31] From a down-hearted frail

[00:01:31] And they played that

[00:01:31] As a part of the blues

[00:01:31] Now from a whippoorwill

[00:01:31] Sittin' high on a hill

[00:01:31] They took a new note

[00:01:31] They pushed it through a horn

[00:01:31] Until it was worn into a blue note

[00:01:31] You got to believe me they nursed it

[00:01:31] And, they rehearsed it

[00:01:31] And then then they gave out the news

[00:01:31] That the South Land

[00:01:31] Really gave birth to the blues

[00:01:31] From a whippoorwill

[00:01:31] High on a hill

[00:01:31] They took a new note

[00:01:31] And they pushed it through a horn

[00:01:31] Until it was worn into a blue note

[00:01:31] Don't you know that they nursed it

[00:01:31] They rehearsed it

[00:01:31] When they are ready

[00:01:31] They gave out the news

[00:01:31] That the South Land

[00:01:31] Gave birth to the blues

[00:01:31] Oh they nursed

[00:01:31] Rehearsed

[00:01:31] And gave out the news

[00:01:31] That, that old South Land

[00:01:31] Gave birth, birth to the blues

[00:01:31] From a whippoorwill

[00:01:31] High on a hill

[00:01:31] They grabbed a new note

[00:01:31] Oh they pushed it through a horn

[00:01:31] Until it was worn into a blue note

[00:01:31] Everybody they nursed

[00:01:31] They rehearsed

[00:01:31] When they were ready they gave out the news

[00:01:31] That the South Land

[00:01:31] Gave birth to the blues

[00:01:31] Oh they nursed rehearsed

[00:01:31] And gave out the news

[00:01:31] That the old South Land

[00:01:31] Gave birth the birth to the blues
