Shaking the Blues Away (Extrait De La Comédie Musicale « Les Pièges De La Passion ») - Doris Day, Ирвинг Берлин

There’s an old superstition

'Way down south

Ev’ry darkie believes

That trouble won’t stay

If you shake it away

When they hold a revival

'Way down south

Ev’ry darkie 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 your 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

List’ning 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 your cares away

If you would lose

Your weary blues

Shake them away

I gotta blues

You gotta blues

All God’s chillun

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 chillun

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
