Shaking The Blues Away Irving Berlin

[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
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
