What is swamp blues? The word swamp comes from the French word for water swamp, meaning to flood. A swamp is an enclosed swamp, or a bay, where water flows in a specific direction, like a river.

The word swamp is also derived from the French word for "black-footed" or "stag." Stag means black. When a black man walks, his tail is long. A stag is a big black cat. The first swamp songs ever recorded were in 1835. That's right. A swamp. It's a long story.

There are many accounts of swamp songs, but I've included some examples below to give you a sense of how swamp blues came to be. In 1835 John C. Calaway recorded the first recorded song of swamp blues, "Stairway to Heaven," in the Southwestern State of Texas.

Calaway was living in the San Antonio area when he heard the swamp blues. His music was all about the blues. He recorded his first recording "The Bluebird," a swamp song.

He recorded it during the summer of 1835. His friend George B. Moore was playing a flute at the time. He recorded it in his home and brought it to the San Antonio Bandstand where Moore heard Calaway play it.

He recorded and wrote Calaway's second recording, "Dovey's Swamp Blues." In the winter of 1836, two men recorded a swamp blues song called "The Water" in a swamp, called San Juan, California.

This recording was released with a song called "Dovey's Swamp Blues"—that is to say the first two swamp songs recorded by a black man. 

"Dovey's Swamp Blues" was originally recorded by a white man named John Lewis Dovey, who was a well-known blues singer and harmonica player from Nashville.

The song is about a woman who swamps a man. He is attracted to her and she is attracted to him, but they can't get together because she's married. So she swamps him, and he swamps her, and then they both get wet.
