The Birth of the Blues - Light Crust Doughboys

They heard the breeze

In the trees

Singing love melodies

And they call that

Just the start of the blues

And from a jail

Came a wail

Of a down-hearted frail

And they call that

A part of the blues

From a whippoorwill

Out on a hill

They took a new note

Pushed it through a horn

Till it was a worn

Into a blue note

And then they nursed it

Rehearsed it

And gave out the new

That the south land

Gave birth to the blues

And then they nursed it

Rehearsed it

And gave out the news

That the southland gave birth to the blues
