Irving Berlin - Shaking The Blues Away (Revised) lyrics

[Verse:] There's an old superstition 'way down south Ev'rybody believes that trouble won't stay If you shake it away When they hold a revival way down south Ev'rybody 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 voodoos do, list'ning to a voodoo melody 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 'em away
