They only had the rhythm so They started swaying to and fro. They didn't know just what they had And 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.

And then they nursed it, rehearsed it, And gave out the news That the south land Gave birth to the blues! The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.comWritten by: B.g.
