Shakin' The Blues Away Lyrics
Shakin' The Blues Away - Ruth Etting
Written by：Irving Berlin
There's an old superstition
A way down south
Everybody I can believes
That trouble won't stay
If you shake it away
When they hold a revival
A way down south
Everybody I came with care
And trouble that day
Tries to shake it away
Shaking the blues away
Unhappy news away
If you are blue it's easy to
Shake off you cares and troubles
Telling the blues to go
They may refuse to go
But as a rule
They'll go if you'll
Shake them away
Do like the darkies do
Listening to a preacher
Way down south
They shake their bodies so
To and fro
With every shake a lucky break
Proving that there's a way
To chase you cares away
If you would lose your weary blues
Shake them away
I gotta blues you gotta blues
All God's children gotta blues
Come and join a rebel
And we'll shake off the devil
And we'll shake all over God's heaven
Heaven heaven
Anyone objectin' to shakin'
Ain't going there
Heaven heaven
Gonna shake all over God's heaven
I gotta shake you gotta shake
All God's children gotta shake
Shake shake
Nothing could be sweeter
Than to shake with saint Peter
When we shake all over
God's heaven heaven heaven
Anyone objectin' to shakin'
Ain't going there
Heaven heaven
Gonna shake all over God's heaven
Shaking shaking the blues away
Unhappy unhappy news away
If you are blue it's easy to
Shake off your cares and troubles
Telling telling the blues to go
They may
They may refuse to go
But as a rule they'll go if you'll
Shake them away
Do like the darkies do
Listening to a preacher way down south
They shake their bodies so to and fro
With every shake a lucky break
Proving proving that there's a way
To chase to chase your cares away
If you would lose your weary blues
Shake them away
