Lyrics:
There's an old superstition way down south
Every darkie believes that trouble won't
stay
If you shake it away
When they hold a revival way down south
Every darkie 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
Do like the darkies do
Listening
to
A preacher way down south
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
I gotta blues - you gotta blues
All God's chillun gotta blues
Come and join a rebel and we'll shake off the
devil
And we'll shake all over God's heaven, heaven, heaven
Anyone objectin' to shakin'
ain't going there
Heaven, heaven
Gonna shake all over God's heaven
I gotta
shake - you gotta shake
All God's chillun gotta shake, shake, shake
Nothing could be
sweeter than to shake with Saint Peter
When we shake all over God's heaven, heaven,
heaven
Anyone objectin' to shakin' ain't going there
Heaven, heaven
Gonna shake all
over God's heaven
