Birth Of The Blues

Lyrics
They heard the breeze in the trees Singing weird melodies And they made that the start of the blues And from a jail came the wail Of a down-hearted frail And they played that as part of the blues From a whippoorwill out on a hill They took a new note Pushed it through a horn till it was worn into a blue note And then they nursed it, rehearsed it and gave out the news That the Southland gave birth to the blues
