Blackbird, blackbird singing the blues all day,
Right outside of my door,
Blackbird, blackbird why do you sit and say,
There's no sunshine in store,
All thru the winter you hung around
Now I begin to feel homeward bound,
Blackbird, blackbird gotta be on my way,
Where there's sunshine galore
Pack up all my care and woe,
Here I go, singing low,
Bye, bye blackbird
Where somebody waits for me,
Sugar's sweet and so is she,
Bye, bye blackbird
No one here can love and understand me,
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me
Make my bed and light the light,
I'll arrive late tonight,
Blackbird, bye, bye
Bluebird, bluebird, calling me far away,
I've been longing for you
Bluebird, bluebird, this is my lucky day,
Skies are turning to blue
I'm like a flower that's fading here.
Where ev'ry hour is one long tear
Bluebird, bluebird, this is my lucky day,
Now my dreams will come true
Pack up all my care and woe,
Here I go, singing low,
Bye, bye blackbird
Where somebody waits for me,
Sugar's sweet and so is she,
Bye bye blackbird
No one here can love and understand me,
Oh, what hard luck stories they all hand me,
Make my bed and light the light,
I'll arrive late tonight,
Blackbird, bye, bye
