STORY OF THE BLUES, THE


as recorded by Della Reese
with Sy Oliver & his Orchestra
1959


You get the blues and I get the blues,
People on the street passin' by get the blues,
The feelin' the same
With a different name!

Folks always sing their own kinda blues,
But I'm gonna sing every night kinda blues,
The old and the new,
Here they, are just for you!

Whichever you choose,
You'll find it in my story of the blues!
