A Song Was Born - Arvell Shaw Barney Bigard Dick Carey Jack Teagarden Louis Armstrong Louis Armstrong / His All Stars Sid Catlett

They took the tune and the words

Right from the mocking birds

That's how a song was born

And then the soft evening breeze

Huffed through the willow trees

That's how a song was born

The tinklin' rain from the sky

Became a lullaby

And the blues must've come from a sigh from a sigh

And when two hearts beat in time

Bluebells began to chime

That's how a song was born

They took a reek jungle beat

And brought it to basin street

And that's how jazz was born

And someone played a whale

All up and down the scale

And that's how jazz was born

They simply played what they liked

As long as it would fit

If it just had a beat

That was it

And when a heart gave a scream

They took it as a theme

And that's how jazz was born
