Memphis Blues

Memphis Blues - Louis Armstrong (路易斯·阿姆斯特朗)

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 there named Handy with a band you should hear

And while the folks gently swayed all the band folks played Real harmony

I never will forget the tune that Handy called the Memphis Blues

Oh yes them Blues

They've got a fiddler there that always slickens his hair

And folks he sure do pull some bow

And when the big Bassoon seconds to the Trombones croon

It moans just like a sinner on Revival Day on Revival Day

Oh that melody sure appealed to me

Because I seem to hear it yet simply can't forget

Is like a sweet old sorrow song

Here comes the very part that wraps a spell around my heart

It sets me wild to hear that loving tune a gain the Memphis Blues
