Blackbird Pie lyrics

All hail the gates of darkness

All hail the gates of night

I’m coming a long way dancing

Singing with a twilight in my eyes

Just gimme sweet sweet lady

Another slice of your pie

Sing a song for six pence

A pocket full of rye

Ten and twelve blackbirds

Baked in a pie

Kill the king of darkness

Steal the queen of night

And down comes a blackbird

Trying to peck off your eye

Thank you for your highness

Thank you for your wine

I’m leaving before the sunrise

Traveling with the shadows by my side

Just gimme sweet sweet lady

One last kiss of good-bye

Sing a song for six pence

A pocket full of rye

Ten and twelve blackbirds

Baked in a pie

Kill the king of darkness

Steal the queen of night

And down comes a blackbird

Trying to peck off your eye

Gimme gimme

Gimme gimme

Some blackbird bie

Gotta gimme

Gotta gimme

Some blackbird pie
