That'S How Rhythm Was Born - The Boswell Sisters

Down south the banjos cry to

Everybody who's sayin' hidie-hi to

While the moonbeams danced on the bayou

That's how rhythm was born

They praised the Mighty Forgiver

They washed their sins in the river

Cold water made 'em all shiver

That's how rhythm was born

Folks came down and gathered round

That old Swanee shore

Caught the craze and sang His praise

They all cried

"Why don't cha gimme some more"

Down south the banjos cry to

Everybody who's singin' hidie-hi to

While the moonbeams danced on the bayou

That's how rhythm was born

Down south the banjos cry to

Everybody who's singin' hidie-hi to

While the moonbeams danced on the bayou

That's just how rhythm was born

They praised the Mighty Forgiver

They washed their sins in the river

Cold water well it made them wanna shiver

And that's how rhythm was born

Folks came down and gathered round

That old Swanee shore

Caught the craze and sang His praise

And cried "Come on give me some more"

You can ask anyone sir

They'll answer we'll be over yonder

That's how rhythm was born

Banjos cry to

Don't they hidie-hi to

Dance on the bayou

And that's just the reason that rhythm was born

Praise and forgive 'em

Washed their sins in the river

Cold water makes 'em all shiver

And that's just the reason that rhythm was born

Folks came down and gathered around

That Swanee shore

Caught the craze sang His praise

They all cried

"Why don't cha gimme some more"

Ask you anyone sir

And they'd be glad to answer you sir

They'll answer we'll be over yonder

And that's just the reason that rhythm was born

That's how rhythm was born
