"Shakin' the Blues Away" lyrics

"Shakin' the Blues 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

Do like the voodoo's 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 them away

Do like the voodoo's 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

Shake 'em
Shake 'em
Shake 'em
