The Birth of the Blues (Live) - The Rat Pack
Come a whippoorwill
Out on a hill
They snatch a new note
Start it in a horn
Till it was a worn
Into a blue note
And then they nursed it
They rehearsed it
And then gave out the new
That the south land
Gave birth to the blues
And they nursed it
Rehearsed it
And gave out the news
That the old southland gave birth to the blues
