Shaking The Blues Away Lyrics & Tabs by Irving Berlin
Shaking The Blues Away
guitar chords lyrics
[Verse:]
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
[Refrain:]
Shaking the blues away
Unhappy news away
If you are blue
It's easy to
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
[Patter:]
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
