Learnin The Blues Lyrics


The tables are empty
The dance floor's deserted
You play the same love song
It's the tenth time you've heard it
That's the beginning
Just one of the clues
You've had your first lesson
In learnin' the bluesThe cigarettes you light
One after the other
Won't help you forget him
When you're loosing your lover
You're only burning
A torch you can't lose
But you're on the right track
For learnin' the bluesWhen you're at home alone
The blues will taunt you constantly
When you're out in a crowd
The blues will haunt your memoryThe night when you don't sleep

The whole night you're crying
But you cannot forget him
Soon you even stop trying
You walk the floor
And wear out your shoes
When you feel your heart break
You're learnin' the blues

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Oscar Peterson (1925-2007) was a Canadian jazz pianist and composer. Born in Montreal, Canada, Peterson began learning trumpet and piano from his father at the age of five, but by the age of seven, after a bout of tuberculosis, he concentrated on the piano. Some of the artists who influenced Peterson during the early years were Teddy Wilson, Nat "King" Cole, James P. Johnson, and the legendary Art Tatum, to whom many have tried to compare Peterson in later years.
