approximate lyrics:
Blues ain't nothin' but the easy goin' heart disease,
Brother stop your moanin'
Blues can't make you warmer if you're bound to freeze
Sister stop your groanin'
Why don't you rise and shine
Take dem blues right off your mind 'cause
the blues ain't nothin' but the easy goin' heart disease,
That's all! Lawd!
CHORUS (2 times)
Ev'ry body's crazy 'bout the doggone blues,
but I'm happy, ([SPOKEN]_whew_)
Ev'ry body's crazy. but if I must choose,
no doggone blues for mine.
I gets aplenty to eat,
I never worry,
Shoes on my feat, don't have to hurry,
I'm not afraid, my rent is paid,
And I can sleep at ninetyfour in the shade.
Ev'ry body's singing lotta bad old news but I'm happy,
([SPOKEN] (_whew_)
yes, happy. ([SPOKEN) _whew_)
Life's too doggone short to weep and whine.
Dem home sickness blues,
Lawd! take 'em away.
Ev'ry body's crazy 'bout the doggone blues, but I'm happy
all the time.
[2nd time only] ([SPOKEN] _whew_)

You all know how Mister Jonah got into that whale,
Fell into the ocean
There's one man that should have sung the blues but failed,
Never had the notion
Old Jonah knew dem whales
'Stead of blues he ragged the scales,
then the whale got gay and let old Jonah right out of jail,
No lie! Lawd!
(CHORUS 2 times)
Lyrics by Cecil Mack according to Wikipedia
Caroline, Caroline, At last they've got you on the map.
With a new tune, a funny blue tune, with a peculiar snap!
You many not be able to buck and wing, fox-trot, two-step, or even swing,
If you ain't got religion in your feet, you can do this prance and do it neat.
Charleston! Charleston! Made in Carolina.
Some dance, some prance, I'll say, there's nothing finer
Than the Charleston, Charleston. Lord, how you can shuffle.
Ev'ry step you do leads to something new, man, I'm telling you it's a lapazoo.
Buck dance, wing dance, will be a back number,
But the Charleston, the new Charleston, that dance is surely a comer.
Sometime you'll dance it one time, the dance called the Charleston,
Made in South Caroline.
Charleston! Charleston! Made in Carolina.
Some dance, some prance, I'll say, there's nothing finer
Than the Charleston, Charleston. Lord, how you can shuffle.
Ev'ry step you do leads to something new, man, I'm telling you it's a lapazoo.
Buck dance, wing dance, will be a back number,
But the Charleston, the new Charleston, that dance is surely a comer.
Sometime you'll dance it one time, the dance called the Charleston,
Made in South Caroline!
