The Birth of the Blues (Live Version) - Sammy Davis Jr.
They... heard... the breeze
Through the trees
Singing weird weird melodies
And they named that
Just the start of the blues
Then from a jail
There came a wail
From a down-hearted frail
And they played that
As a part of the blues
Now from a whippoorwill
Sittin' high on a hill
They took a new note
They pushed it through a horn
Until it was worn into a blue note
You got to believe me they nursed it
And, they rehearsed it
And then then they gave out the news
That the South Land
Really gave birth to the blues
From a whippoorwill
High on a hill
They took a new note
And they pushed it through a horn
Until it was worn into a blue note
Don't you know that they nursed it
They rehearsed it
When they are ready
They gave out the news
That the South Land
Gave birth to the blues
Oh they nursed
Rehearsed
And gave out the news
That, that old South Land
Gave birth, birth to the blues
From a whippoorwill
High on a hill
They grabbed a new note
Oh they pushed it through a horn
Until it was worn into a blue note
Everybody they nursed
They rehearsed
When they were ready they gave out the news
That the South Land
Gave birth to the blues
Oh they nursed rehearsed
And gave out the news
That the old South Land
Gave birth the birth to the blues
