The Memphis Blues

歌詞

Folks, I've just been down, down to Memphis Town That's where the people smile, smile on you all the while Hospitality, they were good to me I couldn't spend a dime and had the grandest time I went out a dancing with a Tennessee dear They had a fellow named Handy with a band you should hear And while the folks gently swayed All them boys began to play in real harmony I never will forget that tune they call Handy's Memphis Blues, oh yes, those blues They've got a trumpet man leading the band And folks, he sure blow some horn And when the clarinet seconds to the trombones croon It moans just like a sinner on revival day That melancholy strain that ever haunting refrain Is like a morning sorrow song Here comes the very part that wraps a spell around my heart It sets me wild to hear that loving tune again, those Memphis Blues
