The Birth of the Blues - Earl Grant
Oh they say some people long ago
Were searching for a different tune
One that they could croon as only they can
They only had the rhythm
So they started swaying to and from
They didn't know just what to use
And this is how the blues really began
That's how the blues really began
They heard the breeze in the trees
Singing weird melodies
And they made that
As part of the blues
And from a jail
Came the wail
Of a down hearted frail
And they made that
As part of the blues
Now from a whippoorwill out on a hill
They took a new note
They pushed it through a horn
Till it was worn into a new note get it
And then they nursed it oh
Rehearsed it wanna
And gave out that news
That the of Southland
Gave birth to the blues
I said because they nursed it
Rehearsed it
And gave out that news
That the of Southland gave birth to the blues
