Where lookin&#39; for a different tune.

One that they could croon

As only they can.

They didn&#39;t knowjust what to use.

But this is how the blues.

Through the trees.
Singing weird melodies. And they
named thatjust the start of the blues.

Then from ajail, there came a wail

From a down hearted frail.

Until it was worn into a blue note.

And then they nursed it, Yeah

the news. That the south land,

Really gave birth to the Blues
