Shaking the Blues Away

IRVING BERLIN

There's an old superstition way down south
Everybody believes that trouble won't stay
If you shake the blues away

When they hold up a Bible way down south
Everybody with care and troubles to spare
Tries to shake it all away

Shakin' the blues away unhappy news away
If you are blue it's easy to
Shake off your cares and troubles

Tellin' the blues to go
They may refuse to go but, as a rule
They'll go if you'll shake 'em away

Like thе voodoos do listenin' to
A voodoo melody they shakе their bodies so
To and fro with every shake
A lucky break

Provin' that there's a way
To chase your cares away if you would lose
Your weary blues shake 'em away
Shake 'em away

Shakin' the blues away unhappy news away
If you are blue it's easy to
Shake off your cares and troubles

Provin' that there's a way
To chase your cares away if you would lose
Your weary blues shake 'em away
Shake 'em away ah
Shake 'em away
