1
Oh! They say some people long ago
2
Were searching for a different tune,
3
One that they could croon
4
As only they can.
5
They only had the rhythm so
6
They started swaying to and fro.
7
They didn't know just what they had
8
And that is how the blues really began:
9
They heard the breeze in the trees
10
Singing weird melodies
11
And they made that
12
The start of the blues.
13
And from a jail came the wail
14
Of a down hearted frail,
15
And they played that
16
As part of the blues.
17
From a whippoorwill out on a hill,
18
They took a new note,
19
Pushed it through a horn
20
'til it was born into a blue note.
21
And then they nursed it, rehearsed it,
22
And gave out the news
23
That the southland
24
Gave birth to the blues!
