the birth of the blues - layton & johnstone lyrics
oh my heck, it is layton and johnstone turned up
for the love of mine, don’t tell me you’ve come to the chord
we most certainly have, this is how it’s been arranged for us
well, i knew nothing about it
still, carry on boys, speak it again
well, turner, what should it be called?
oh, i don’t know, turner
what about hallelujah?
let’s go
sing, “hallelujah, hallelujah” and you shoo the blues away
when cares pursue ya, “hallelujah” gets you through the darkest day
satan lies a*waitin’ and creating skies of gray
sing, “hallelujah, hallelujah” gets you through thе darkest day
hallelujah, hallelujah, hallеlujah
hallelujah!
oh, they say the darkest love is gold
they’re searching for a different hue
or their favorite crew, ’cause only they can
they only had the rhythm so they started swaying to and fro
they didn’t notice what to use
that is how the blues really began
they heard the breeze in the trees singing weird melodies
and they made that the start of the blues!
and from a jay came the way of a nounally frail
and they played that as part of the blues!
from a little wheel out on the hill
they took a new note
oh, they say that doctors 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 fro
they didn’t know just what to use
that is how the blues really began
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 the hill
they took a new note
pushed it through a h*rn ’til it was worn
into a blue note
and then they nursed it, rehe*rs*d it, and gave out the news
that the southland gave birth to the blues!
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 the hill
they took a new note
pushed it through a h*rn ’til it was worn
into a blue note
and then they nursed it, rehe*rs*d it, and gave out the news
that the southland gave birth to the blues!
