Shaking the Blues Away Lyrics by Holiday Inn (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

Holiday Inn (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

2017

There's an old superstition way down South.
Ev'ry body believes that troubles won't stay if you shake it away.
When they hold a revival way down South.
Ev'ry body with care and trouble that day tries to shake it away.
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
I do like the voodoos do
list'ning to a voodoo melody.
They shake their body so to and fro,
with ev'ry shake a lucky break.
Proving that there's away.
To chase your cares away.
If you would lose your weary blues
Shake them away.
(Spoken)
Hey Patrick, bring it in!
(Patrick - spoken)
Where'd you find the time?
(Ensemble male)
tap shoes!
(Sawyer - spoken)
she's shakin'!
she's shakin' too!
(Jim - spoken)
Top of their fields!
(Louise - spoken)
Hey Jim, I've got something for ya.
(Jim - spoken)
You gotta be kiddin' me.
uh oh.
Three of 'em?
Merry Christmas!
(All)
Do like the voodoos do
listening to a voodoo melody.
They shake their body so to and fro,
with ev'ry shake
a lucky break.
(Jim and ensemble)
Provin' the there away.
To chase your cares away.
(All)
If you would loose your weary blues
Shake 'em away
Shake 'em away.
